    I have one 5 1/4" floppy drive on a very, very old PC in this home. I also have a whole box of disks that all still work too.

    Wow, 3.1. I remember that..as well as good ole dos....Anyone else remember the days before the internet...BBS's?? 300/1200/2400.....baud? lol. Man, technology has come a long way. What is it that Moore's law states?? Technology doubles every...what is it 1 year? I forget.

    My father used to work on a Navy ship that had a computer which took an entire room..he did the A/C. I can't even imagine the generated by all those transistior tubes.
    Having a positive mental attitude is asking how something can be done rather than saying it can’t be done.

    Windows 3.1 was one of the best stages in my life. My entry into the computer world started with it, games, and more. Not to mention that 386/486 lasted me sooo long, it died around 2003. And only the hard drive died, everything else worked. And I still have a windows 3.1 install cd.

    I have personally never used 3.1 however I have spent an amount of time with Windows 2 :cool: from what I know they are fairly similar :dunno:

    What I do know is that if you have the drives, installing windows 2 is not a problem in Virtual PC etc

    Alot faster in VPC compaired to when it was in service, to be expected I suppose :laugh:
