    Thanks to this mistake, they never had to invent HASERs (heavy amplification by stimulated emission of radiation). Fail fast, fail cheap!

        Of course you didn’t! Because you never needed to use hasers to read CDs (commodious disks)

    Wow so much data storage to save slop within. I would have liked to have that in 1995.

      it actually doesn’t hold more data than a regular floppy, it’s just sturdier
