This is very well done and also mildly scary.

Now that is very, very impressive! The detail right down to changing the desktop background

It's very well done

Quality, love how IE also works as well

I would love to see a simple example of how that was done using css etc. Especially the maximize and minimizing of windows

You wouldn't dare would you?

You wouldn't dare would you?

 

Wouldn't I?

 

Of course, I could just point all the thin clients at instances of Windows 3.11

Kch, I'm finally old enough to be able to say: you were only just born when it was released

I think it was with Windows 3.1 that I managed to crack my first bit of software - a very early version of Winzip...... Have not done anything like that for almost 10 years now....

Love it... such memories...

 

Have forwarded the link to our Head of ICT to show the little kiddies how things used to be done just a few years ago.

That is made of WIN. I've never owned a computer with Windows 3.1 on but my cousin did. We never had enough money for a PC until we got a PC with a Pentium 120 and Windows 95.

to think that was only 18 years ago
