That's reserved for those who can show an original DOS (5.25" or 3.5") disk at the door. I may have to retire mine though, I think we finally mothballed all machines with DOS or 95 on it. _________________________ Asu no koto o ieba, tenjo de nezumi ga warau.

But have you ever installed it on a 1Ghz system? It's lightning fast. :cool:

Installing Windows NT4 in a virtual pc. (work related, I've not gone totally bonkers! yet...)
I have every (non-server) Windows version going back to Windows 95 installed, except for Windows 98SE. Most of them are installed on a single computer (I make heavy use of Partition Magic). NT4 is a pain to install (until Service Pack 3 or 4, it couldn't cope with hard disk partitions > 8 Gb and it used an older version of NTFS prior to Service Pack 6), doesn't support FAT32 or USB and is generally hostile to most hardware. If something goes seriously wrong, the recovery tools are pretty hopeless and you are likely to have to reinstall it. On the other hand, it is fabulously fast compared to that slug XP and rarely crashes.

I still have my old DOS, Windows 3.1, and Windows 95 floppy disks... but I would certainly not guarantee that more than a couple of the disks still work. :-> I wouldn't go back to the days of floppy disks, despite the nostalgia - give me a reliable USB pen drive anyday. ;-)
