My Windows 95 installation floppies were high density floppies with a special disk format that gave them 1.6MB instead of 1.44MB.

Yea, it was called DMF, also used for Office 4.2 floppies for example.

I did this all the time when I was 13, 14 years old.

They weren't, because they were Windows 95 installation floppies.

I had a CD-ROM by then, so I don't know what the floppy installs looked like.

But you know that Windows 95 was released in 1995.

So what is your point? I used low density disks in '94, so it's not a stretch to imagine they were around in '95.

It's weird. I was /there/ in 1995 and I have trouble even remembering Windows 95 came on floppies. I feel old.
