Too bad we can't compare it to the really win 98 source code. = )

I have always wanted to see the source for the Windows series myself including a lot of other developers. However, I bet it is gigantic...

I just got -30 points for posting the oldest joke in the book. The only reason I posted it, was because there was an awful lot of Win98 chit chat going on, and now that 98 support has been discontinued. I would post one last Win98 joke. I could see if I posted a Win 3.11, but I won't even attempt that. Hey thanx for the support guys. I guess some people have to even out their points, and others only think about theirself when they assign points. I can't read minds, and people are not specific with feedback....

I don't get that man. Your post goes from Negative to E. Positive, so if 1 person knocked you down 30 points, because this is an old joke, and everyone else is enjoying. I am going to have to say... you were right about others only thinking about their self when assigning points. It can't be too bad of a post if only one person had a problem with it. Well I would help you out with points, but I am grey also. I hope you get back up to 50 soon. I just checked my AP's and I got a grey from you not even 5 minutes ago. Did you get negged again?

I got negged for getting to many AP's for a stupid Joke. We'll just drop the subject.... Thanx

Hell, it took me 2 years to work all of the conflicts and bugs out of W98 (which is what I use, along with RH7.3), not to mention adjusting caches and VM and etc., and have had absolutely no problems as of late. I can even use it as a server with no hangs or BS'sOD). Yet I long for W3.11...aaahhh...fully functional, natural DOS....
Anyways...good joke, no matter how many times I see it, and completely true.

Ouroboros

Now I think we know why Micro$oft will always be closed source. . . ;-)

Looks like your still getting the support.... Good luck Bro!

Funny yes...but I have gotten win98 to run perfectly for weeks on end with out having to turn off the machine....and the motherboard I was running it off was a pentium one with 168Mb ram (don't ask) which I paid 14 dollars for.... it just...didn't crash....I don't know what the rest of the free world is whining about but it never bothered me...

argg this is messing up though....I never had to turn OFF the machine..sorry..uggg I LOTHE THIS COMPUTER

Sorry...I meant turn OFF the machine...but that computer is long dead....it stopped detcting that it had a ps/2 port....heh

...why did my computer post both of those?????? SEE WHY I HATE IT?
