    Does your computer have a floppy drive? You might be able to find a copy of this at a secondhand store:

    Picture of a floppy disk with an official-looking Microsoft product label with the text: The Internet / On a Disc / * Surf quickly and easily with no need for ISPs / * Millions and millions of websites on one 3½'' disc / * Take The Internet with you wherever you go - it fits in your pocket!

        You can use this design, but if you want it to accommodate 3½-inch disks you’ll need to scale it down to two thirds of its specified size before printing it.
