Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 16215 PC + 15222 Mobile Insider

When Windows 95 came along, I remember going up to 8 MB RAM.
It wasn't 11x 5.25 inch Floppies either - It was 13x 3.5" 1.68MB DMF format floppies, or a new-fangled CD-ROM!
I still have original W95 CD.

I have a win 95 upgrade disc, and Windows 95, 3.1 and 3.11 on floppies (3.5”)

Hi,
I have a win 95 upgrade disc, and Windows 95, 3.1 and 3.11 on floppies (3.5”)
But no floppy drive to read them !?
Those DMF floppies weren't very reliable either.
Cheers,

I still have all my original DOS/Windows software media.

I made ISOs of all media I have.
Those are just ones I keep on disk on the machine, rest are on a backup disk.

My earliest computer experience was as a draughtsman....going from a board to a CAD packaged Hewlett Packard ME10....with nobody to ask for advice as it was a completely new concept at the time....self learn was the only way.
This was in the early nineteen eighties as I recall.

Yeah, AutoCAD on a 286, punch coordinates in and go get a coffee while it draws the lines.

Why? That is bewildering to me. If I even found an old win xp or me disk, I would destroy it immediately!!! I have little to no interest in inferior os's. So I am curious what the draw is to keep such disks? Hell, I loved win 7 ult., as it never let me down. But I have zero win 7 software now days, as win ten has well surpassed it. So why would I keep it? Cheers.

Thats a good idea.

Sentimental reasons and fond memories. XP was the best OS for a decade Until Windows 7 arrived. I like to run them in virtual sometimes.

I firmly believe nostalgia ain't what it used to be .
