I was just wondering if there is anyone on this list using (as their main machine) a 486, 386, or a (presumably 20-year-old) 286? I know Kat and some others are on windows 95, is anyone pre-dating that (again, as their main machine)? I've decided to have a bash at learning assembly (and possibly update the original/other Pete's asm.e), so let me know. Pete PS I trust there is no-one on this list not using intel x86...

If anyone is interested, i found piles of win98 desktop boxes for sale, and win98se on laptops. Those older OSs are still useable! (Even if MS won't fix the bugs anymore.) Kat

I'm interested. Mostly in the laptops, but both are good.
