In the grand scheme of things, I couldn't have made more than 15 or 20 dollars over the course of a weekend, but for a kid under the age of 12 an extra 15 or 20 dollars meant a lot more shareware CDs and floppy disks. (and paper and ink and so on and so fourth.)
Eventually, I moved on to CD-Rs. I might still have one or two of those around, but I don't have any of the floppy discs or newsletters around. It didn't occur to me that they were special.
I wish I did.
