0sit0 Posted July 25, 2003 Share Posted July 25, 2003 I used a computer back in my country, lol i guess it was MS-DOS, but maybe it was Q-Basic or something like that, lol i was too small to remember :D then i came here and started with: - Windows 98 - Windows 2000 (made an upgrade without knowing anything about Upgrades or drivers, lol) - Upgraded it to Windows Me (beta), lol what a POS :) - Windows 2000 again after i researched and understand everything about drivers and hardware, lol - Windows Whistler - My fave forever! - Windows XP - The Best ever! no problems for now :) and real fast, lots of options! (Using now) - Windows Server 2003 - Its nice but is not for me :) - Windows LongHorn - i dont like the GUI, but i do like the windows movements they are sweet! I have used Linux is good but I dont like it much, and believe it or not I have never seen a Mac ever in my life in front of me, lol im dying to see one :cool: that's my Record, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

macman87 Posted July 26, 2003 Author Share Posted July 26, 2003 i have seen all the windows betas from 3.1 except windows 98... how did the internet intergration develope? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyfrog Posted July 28, 2003 Share Posted July 28, 2003 I can't remember the name, possibly Nashville, but I think the web integration started out as a standalone addon, or it was early in beta testing. I think there is actually a thread about it on the OSBetaArchive site but I'm too lazy to look it up right now. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoMayhem Posted July 28, 2003 Share Posted July 28, 2003 i have seen all the windows betas from 3.1 except windows 98... how did the internet intergration develope? MS added that integration crap in the beginning, then took it out because it didn't work right, then at the last minute, like in RC 1 they added it again, and made the same stuff available for 95 via IE 4. There is very little different about 95 and 98, mainly some new drivers (usb) and a few new GUI options. 98 was worth about $.10 as an upgrade from 95 :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel Blue01 Posted July 28, 2003 Share Posted July 28, 2003 Right, you can get the formerly-Nashville UI for free with IE 4.01. I've still got IE 4.01 installed on my Windows 95 OSR2 machine. I've loved the shell intergration since I saw the first screenshots. Fantastic concept! (Ugly usage, worse in beta) They're in book... Maybe I'll post them here...

NeoMayhem Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 Windows Me beta's where very stable Yeah, I dont know why happened to the final, I think MS accidently shipped the first alpha or something instead :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougkinzinger Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 Yeah, chicago looks like Windows 95ed 3.11 - REALLY WEIRD ;-)))) /Raptor That's pretty much what it was at the time. I remember testing it back in late 1994. It was pretty much 3.1 with a 32-bit Explorer (still utilizing Win32S for those who remember it !)
