I was in high school and university when this scene was at its prime. I was always amazed by the effort that went into composing, announcing, and promoting specific distributions. The PC scene operated on an industrial scale, primarily supplying exotic ASCII and ANSI art in file_id.diz files and titles associated with handles like "Prez" and "Warez." In contrast, the Amiga and Mac clans displayed more panache by incorporating audio and animations.
