I remember my first CD-ROM drive in 1995. THAT was so freaking wizard. Myst, the complete works of Shakespeare (20 MB, lol), and other groovy things.

It was one of the first 4X drives, which was made by TEAC (of audio equipment fame).

Unfortunately, I fell for inflated specs: the CD spin rate was 4X, but the read buffer was abysmal, so it was a lot slower than even 2X drives. Bleh ;)
