The whole MS-DOS DoubleSpace/DriveSpace thing. It's been on my mind for years. Probably far too many years to be healthy. But I guess that's kinda why I make these videos.

Why did we have DoubleSpace in DOS 6.0, but then DriveSpace in DOS 6.22?

What happened? Why was there a legal case? Are Microsoft criminals (that's probably a more in depth story for another lifetime).

Anyway, here's the video on all that.

This is exactly why I am a patron of this channel. This type of video is so well executed and so interesting. Nice job

This is such a great video! Brought back tons of memories of when I was into these things. Perhaps you could take a look at Norton Utilities and Sidekick. Maybe even software like Smart and Lotus Symphony. Ooooh.. I'm getting tingly now!
