- Just imagine if you could manage to install TimesTwo, and then install
- it again without removing the first driver.
-
- The first one would compress everything to 50% original size, then
- pass it on to the second driver. It would pack it down to 50% of
- THAT, meaning it was now only 25% of what it started out as!!
-
- And then, if we could put _another_ TimesTwo driver in the path, then
- it would get compress AGAIN down to an amazing 12.5% of original!!!
-
- A 20 mb hard drive would serve the space of a 160 mb one! Quantum,
- Rodime, Seagate, and the others would go out of business 'cause
- no one would buy large hard drives any more!
-
- I myself developed a compression scheme that will archive a set
- of files together into a single set and then compress it down
- to four bytes, regardless of how large the originals were. I
- know this will revolutionize the entire data storage and transmission
- system as we know them today, once I manage perfect the
- decompression scheme. I'll let everyone know when I get it
- done.
