Ah, the elusive A: drive. For the younger devs who've never experienced the joy of floppy disks, the A: drive was the default letter for that ancient 3.5" data rectangle that stored a whopping 1.44MB. That's right—not GB, not even MB—just 1.44MB. You could fit approximately one-third of a modern JavaScript framework's readme file on there. These days, most computers don't even have physical drive letters anymore, just abstract mount points that hide in the shadows like well-documented code.
