The original MacOS when they only used floppies or small
hard disks.
The file system for OS/360, and still used with the
successors to OS/360, uses a flat 44 character name space.
It is normally divided up with somewhat like group.username.filename
(Newer systems use both hierarchical (unix like) file system
and the MVS file system at the same time.)
