Welcome to the End of the Computer Age

This has been around long enough that you’ve probably seen or heard of it already, but for some reason – despite my attempt to keep up with every bad educational and/or training video that’s old enough for the clothes to be different from current clothes – I only found “Don’t Copy That Floppy” quite recently. It deserves its high reputation as a classic of a) Bad early ’90s style and b) Piracy hysteria. It’s a bit of a nostalgic wallow in a time when the worst fear of many industries was that people would make physical copies of their products.
