Oh man I distinctly remember being taught how to insert the floppy disk and then select the A: drive to save to the floppy disk on windows 3.1 in my elementary school computer class. My dad’s Prince of Persia game was on like ten floppy disks.
I’m kinda a little jealous of all the people who had computer classes growing up. The schools just expected us to know how to use them and how they work by the time I was getting in
Same here! And the weird thing is, we did this like 8 times during the school year because that’s apparently everything our computer class teacher knew how to do. I always wondered why that was.
I actually recently set up a laptop to run windows 3.1 so I could show my kids what I used at their age. This was part of a tutorial that automatically runs when you first boot it up.
Jesus that makes me feel old and I never once in my life used a floppy drive.
