Felt like staging the most 2000s desk I possibly could. Colours just for fun. The more you look, the more there is!

Encarta would be a flashback to the 90's through.
Together with the 14-CD-Set of heavily compressed satellite images that had been the forerunner of the 00s online map services, as well as a CD that contained all the phone numbers, manually digitized from the printed phone books by early east asian data workers...
I honestly forgot how cool Encarta actually was! It’s fun to revisit it to see what it had on various topics I’m more familiar with now. It’s quite light now, but a fun trip down memory lane!
Yes, those early multimedia CDs had their own kind of very special magic.
Everyone was trying out what was possible with the new immense data capacity available.
The technological jump from the early- to the mid-90s was completely insane!
