Citation needed.

My simple web site (in profile) has many links and references, answers to questions, and details. Be sure to read the top part about ~ "how to read this site", as I have really tried to make the site both readily skimmable, and detailed.

I have also learned some of these things for myself, not depending only on what others, or books, say. Again, details in the site and nothing for sale there, no JS currently either.

It shall live on in the archive.

What is the truth?

Seeking to find the truth may be something that is good for some people: https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/idol-words

Can you give details? I'm wondering if this was something that only a local affiliate did and not something that was PBS sanctioned.

I bet a sealed 38 floppy edition of Windows 98, in mint condition, would go for a million USD.

I wonder if you could build a modern-ish browser on Windows 98 and use it as a minimalist daily driver? Give me a modern browser, bash shell (perhaps an old version of cygwin?), and a decent text editor and I probably could for the most part. I'd have to really get in the '90s spirit and break out the cassette deck though because running an obese Electron app like Tidal would probably be difficult.

I guess you're limited to 3.5 GB of memory too what with Windows 98 being a 32-bit operating system which might be a pain, and perhaps a bigger problem is that no drivers have been written for a couple of decades.

IIRC Windows 9x could address only up to 1 GB of RAM. If you had more memory, you had to use the NT family to use it.

What’ll ya give me for an unopened copy of Win 3.1 on 5.25s?

How much do you need to keep it in its current state? :)

You can get Windows 95 on 15 discs on eBay here for £50.

I’m only seeing one sealed Windows 95 floppy retail box on eBay at the moment, and even though it’s sealed it looks to be in poor condition. Plus I am skeptical that it’s even the original sealing. Could have been resealed. And they want about $200 for it plus shipping.
