Oh the times when getting GTA from a friend required 30+ 3½" floppy disks IIRC. That plus making 5 or 6 round trips to friend's house, because one of them almost always got corrupted during the zip process.

And since no one had the disk space or knowhow to store the zip packets on HDD for the inevitable re-copying, had to redo the whole pack from scratch each time.

Edit: disk->HDD
