Back when QNX was distributed on floppy, my work locked down their computers so that I couldn't dial out to the internet. So I booted up the QNX off the floppy and was browsing within minutes. My boss walked in on me browsing the internet and I nearly got fired over it. He was worried because he thought he might get in trouble for it. Once I explained how it worked, he was less worried.

It was amazing that they could fit a semi-functional browser on a floppy.
