I think the first time I installed Linux it came on 3 or maybe 5 micro floppies. That was around 1997. Now it comes on a DVD. That would make sense with what Alan said. 10 years ago you could get linux on a handful of floppies, but it was command line only. Today's DVD version has 17 different graphical window managers and hundreds of bits of eye candy.
