This has certainly whetted my appetite for a deeper dive - what's a good book on the history of Windows (or even Microsoft), from the earliest days up until at least Windows 95?
Back in the day, when I had a Minidisc player, I heard in Japan, there were Minidisc drives for PCs as data storage. I would have liked to have one of those, but if that was true, they didn't find their way to Europe.
They were very pretty and I liked the haptics.
