All on two floppies! I just may give this one a go.

Floppies? Is that the stuff we used in the 90's? Does it come on CD or is there a good reason for still having floppies?
(Well besides the obvious leight weight aspect - which is good).

I think it's the light weight aspect, which to me is great for portability. In these days of bloat, bloat, bloat, it's nice to see something honestly nice and lightweight.

No argument there.

And the Developer replies if you email him.

Definitely time to give it a go then. Now, off to find floppies.

I fancy giving it a spin but haven't possessed anything with a floppy drive for years!

Rick I bet it could fly on a USB stick.

I still have a floppy drive, but disabled it a while back.
