Title: Windows 1.0
Post by: BlackBox on September 14, 2004, 07:05:33 PM: I recently ran a copy of Windows 1.0 in Bochs (If you don't know, Bochs is a program that can emulate the operation of an intel based processor. in layman's terms, I can run any OS I want - inside a window in WinXP. (It doesn't run as fast as it would natively, of course, and cdrom and sound support are sketchy.)

Here I present to you, a screenshot of the file manager of Windows 1.0:

Quite scary that it was this basic wasn't it?

(For the record: my mouse did not work. I had to use arrow keys to navigate. When I tried to run a program, it did not run. It's more or less a useless copy of windows.)

it was released, just almost no one knows about it.

I did find it on the net, just can't remember where now.

Post by: PlayingOutpost0-24 on September 23, 2004, 02:15:42 PM: The Egg Carrier is Eggman's ship in Sonic Adventure DX. With raised wings it has a so huge entrance to the Sky Deck, it is very scary... and if u dont know xxx=porn. There were groups for categorizing files. One was named Sex.

Back on topic, i heard about Windows 2.0, also it was in shops, but y bother to buy it if DOS was enough good.
