Optical discs duplicator – TurboJet fork

Two CDs, 1,481,209,632 bytes, measured sector by sector: Mode 2 Form 1 that never uses Mode 2, 54.4374 % of each disc identical to the other, 42 min of Indeo 5 named .BIN, 5 h of 4-bit ADPCM closed to nine decimals, the burner's signature in the unclaimed sectors, and 12 files shared with its own predecessor - all Microsoft's.

Byte-level measurements of Crash 'n Burn (3DO, Crystal Dynamics, 1993), the first 3DO disc in this collection. An Opera file system reader written from scratch; 451 files, not the 326 a mis-read next_block field showed; 7,239 frames of a codec the studio wrote because Cinepak had not shipped.

Alone in the Dark (3DO, Europe, 1994): the first disc in five whose sector map does not close. 14.83 % of it is two other computers -- 34 MB of a PC's Watcom C/C++ 10.0 at the end of the pressing, 24 MB of a Macintosh build machine inside the files. Coverage moved 49.00 % to 90.79 %.

Measurements of the 883 'Grazie mille' CD Extra data session (Italy, 1999): a Director 7 program, a slot machine, and an Activeworlds chat client whose world server address survived in a cache directory name.
