I teach Information Technology to adults at a variety of sites across the North of England.
I deal primarily with PC-compatibles, but do have a fascination with the rest of the computer world. I'm not stuck solely on Windows 95 either. Though this is the main OS I teach on a day-to-day basis, at home I've been know to use Linux, DOS, Windows for Workgroups, OS/2, Windows 2 (remember that?), CP/M (I have a very long memory!) and anything else that looks vaguely interesting.
Anybody know of an operating system which runs on Intel hardware and I haven't experienced?
My main machine at home is a rather slow 486 DX2 with a tiny hard drive, but have extended with JAZ and ZIP drives (etc.). I still mainly use DOS/Win 3.1 on this though... largely because I can't bear the thought of having to shift all my old and reliable software over to the "tender care" of Win 95. That'll happen next year when I upgrade..
I'm still stockpiling old DOS and Win 3.xx utilities though... and you may find a few freebies on offer HERE, should you wish to take a look.
Meanwhile, a very large assortment of totally uncoordinated links, accumulated over time. Make use of them as you please... some may be helpful. Can you let me know if some of these are 'dead'? Thanks!
