AOL disks? That's where I'd save all my Dragonball Z pictures I'd download.

Oh I used to love free disks from AOL. Almost never needed to buy them until CDROMs got common. Now you want to talk old media...My Commodore Vic 20 from 1980 had 5 Kilobytes of RAM and the CPU was 180,000 times slower than my smartphone. Before floppies programs were saved on audio cassettes. You could blow your stereo speakers if you accidentally played one as the noises were like Dubstep...

I used their free trial for 3 months or whatever, called them up to cancel, and they started arguing with me. They asked why I wanted to leave and I told them I had higher standards. Then they started to try and belittle my computer knowledge. I stayed on the line, laughed, and shut him down.
