 In the BBS documentary, there's an OCD guy who made built-in cabinets
 in his computer room for case after case of shareware on 1.2mb floppy
 disks.

 WHY?

 Who wants copies of every version of PC-WRITE? Nagware-enabled terminal
 programs? Xtree clones? Bad Infocom clones?

 Chances are by now the half-life of written-to floppy disks has passed.
