Windows 3.11 that is. The last pure Windows there was.

Joke's on you. It's basically a dos s shell.

Exactly, that means it hasn't infected my entire system and is constantly connected and phoning home about my computer usage and browsing habits all day. I can just play Skifree and Minesweeper and not worry about a damn thing.

Why modernize 3.11 when you can modernize OS/2 Warp instead?

[-] rob_t_firefly@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

My favorite bit of OS/2 snark from back then was "OS/2 = half an operating system"

[-] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

Cause I don't know what OS/2 Warp is. Is that IBMs?

[-] finkrat@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Yes, it's their OS from around the time. Was pretty good, worth playing around with a little, WinWorldPC has images if you're interested. It can run I think Windows 3.0 as well inside the OS if I remember right?

Oooo thanks! I'll take a look. I'm in the process of making a multiboot external drive.

Can't modernise peak operating system

[-] SynopsisTantilize@lemm.ee 1 points 1 month ago

I'd just want a file explorer and Firefox to run. That's all I ask for.
