A comment on How did Windows 95 get permission to put the Weezer video Buddy Holly on the CD?. Parent comment
I know. I did it. PC Pro magazine paid me to fit it into a very early SSD, which only held 16MB.
There was only 24MB of installation files!

It took more installed, obviously. 16MB was hard but I did it. No help, no fonts, not even Notepad, but it ran.
Nlite came into its own with Win98 and especially Win98SE. You could cut that down by half easily. No IE, for instance. I used Opera.
It is still around!
