now that you have that norton antivirus diskettes it could be quite neat for a retrospective about Norton Antivirus and why it was so popular back then and why nowdays is one of the worst antivirus. Like a Rise and Fall of Norton Antivirus because i hold a special place for that antivirus because my father used to like that program until we got infected with a Executable injecting virus that crapped all our files into oblivion and Norton did nothing to prevent it sadly, he then moved to Panda Antivirus i still have some of the discs they used to mail you when you brought a subscription but since we had a rough time years ago and was quite expensive to have that suscription going on we just cancel it.

@@ExperimentIV funny i just got rid of my Atari STE with an external 40MB hard drive. This version had the MIDI ports built-in. I use to record melodies from Yamaha DX7 and Roland M32 synthesizers using a program call Notator Sequencer Score Writer. Gave it to neighbour kid who now creating his own R&B songs. He was a bit blown away this type of program existed back then. It like the same reaction my nephew and niece would get when i show them how we use to connect to the internet via 56K modem...lol

@ExperimentIV 3 года назад

@@anthonylenzo3675 that's awesome! i still don't have any music software. my st also has midi (i think they all do) and i want to use it as a patch librarian for my dx7 and as a sequencer (bc it's incredibly low latency and an amazing MIDI clock). any way you would consider mailing a rando in the youtube comments some music software? I don't have an internal hdd (yet?) but like... i would be so appreciative. or if you know anyone i could contact to help me! i don't necessarily need original copies of software bc that stuff is all way too expensive and collectible now

@krzbrew 3 года назад

As for the font pack - I've got one of these with my Canon BJC-4650 printer in 2001 (on a diskette as well). Not sure whether it is this exact font pack. It is when the fonts were not free and you had to purchase these separately. You had a nice free pack of fonts to use together with your limited bundled set of fonts for Win 3.1. Unfortunately, these were ASCII only, so, e.g. you could not really use them if your country does not use Latin alphabet. They work fine in later versions of Windows. Tested them on Windows 7 and they worked fine. Got a similar diskette with a fonts pack with HP LaserJet 6L.

I know this video is a month old but it would be nice to see a mashup of different floppys from this video, just showing the software and stuff on disks. Curious about things like the truetype font by canon as uninteresting as that may be. Would love to see a bunch of these explored. I know you have another video where you sat and tested 100 broken floppy disks, i'd like to see something similiar with these on the software with the more interesting picks of the lot.
