Good points and bad points.

Good =>
easy to include on-line documentation, with graphics, etc.
They could also include useful sources to public domain software,
like x windows, etc.


Bad=>
You need to copy the stuff over to a disk anyway.
You would need floppies for last minute changes.
Also, what does Apple do with 10,000 old copies of A/UX 1.0? :-)

At least the NeXT type disk is re-usable and writable
