Default film to digital, early days

No real story here.
.... In the early days of digital pics, there was a brief period of desktop computers becoming popular, but no personal digital cameras. Early 90's??
There was one company, was it "Seattle Film"??? where you could send your film, and they'd send the pics back on a floppy disk with or without prints.

I used them a lot. Some pics very, very racy, never a problem. Obviously since an entire roll of pics was put on one (or a couple?) floppy disks, the resolution sucked immensely compared to today's digital pics.

I said "never a problem" But like any other film processing facility, who knows who's got those pics today.
