What do you mean "come out ten years before they did"? There *were*
stuff on 7" flexi-disks! Many computer magazines of the era had those
flexi disks that you first had to copy to C-cassette (or probably one
could use them directly but I don't recall seeing anybody to do that).
Although... This was more the time of C64 & Spectrum than Amiga. But
it caertainly wasn't something that could have happened ten years
earlier, it was reality that time.
