The MSDN library CDs were indispensable for Windows developers in the 90s. Amazing resource all at your fingertips! What a time we were living in!

A pirated copy of Visual Studio 2005 started my career.

We didn't have internet at home, and I was still in school, so the Knowledge Base articles on the MSDN CDs pretty much taught me.
