For anyone not reading the article: She was the co-founder and was putting together a collection of games they had made and needed the source code for the game Wasteland.

I asked for the source and was given a blank stare. I went to the COO’s office and he gave me a cardboard box that looked like it was run over by a truck and it had some of the source on floppies. I ended up contacting friends at Electronic Arts to get a copy of the source we sent them when Wasteland shipped.

After that she started keeping backups of everything she worked on.
