A stack of 15 floppy disks for one program. Please insert the next disk to continue (I can't remember the exact wording). Command prompt to A:\ and having to see what the install program might be called. Bring amazed that CDs could autorun programs.

Booting from a single floppy disk in A: and using the other floppy drive (B: of course) to store programs and files because there was no hard drive. And the floppy disks only stored something like 300 KB.
