Not real. The Bs and 8s are clearly different.
Not exactly Workbench 1.3 disk 1 is it?
Came here to post just that :D
Floppy disk with Win 3.11
Yes, I have also installed windows from a very small stack of floppies. Windows 3.1

I don’t remember if that was from XP or 98…
Thx for the key shithead
Have fun with XP? Not sure Microsoft even cares anymore
They didn’t even care back then, they sure as fuck don’t care now.
Older than this. I stopped before XP.
Typing CD keys was such a feeling when it was for a brand new game you can’t wait to play, pure despair if you mistyped something and it didn’t accept but then you corrected the error, biggest sense of relief of my childhood
My first typing was a game into C64 using machine code. Game magazines at that time dedicated a few pages with lines of hex numbers for games. After typing 4 pages you had a game.
Unfortunately, I‘ve got my data tape recorder two month later for xmas. And mom was nervous about keeping the power on for days. I entered those numbers quite some times. Load„*“,8,1
The joy of typing binary from a magazine into a hex editor :) we did it as two people, one reading, one typing, but I believe we only ever completed one of the smaller listings.
That’s some hardcore ‘cd key’ typing lol
Original copies? WTF? I mean, I had this version too, but I never ever saw the originals my disks were a copy of.
lol same. I thought the originals were a myth.
Here in former Yugoslavia, we got one original copy that got distributed to (probably) the whole country. Old times were so fun.
I can smell this photo
Ah yes, the ozone-plastic top notes with an undertone of Doritos and Mt. Dew. And is that a slight hint of cheap beer?
I remember reading a conspiracy theory that this key was purposely put in by a liberal employee who believed everything should be free and that’s why the first 5 digits are FCKGW - fuck George w - and that it was the volume license for Lockheed Martin or something
It’s not true but interestingly this key was leaked before windows xp even came out, like a month before, and it’s suspected to be a VLK from dell
Nowadays they’d probably say leftist
Somehow upgrading from MS-DOS 3.30 to 5.0 was alright, but 6.22 seemed like a lot of clutter. QEMM386 was the shit. My 8088 got the coprocessor upgrade at some point I’m Geoworks old. With the C64 on the side
Ama bout to score me a free copy of XP 😏
This is the internet. You can say “fuck GW”, it’s fine
I think people say “fuck Games Workshop” even on reddit
I was thinking “Fuck George W”
I thought it was people arguing about BASIC-A vs GW-BASIC.
Almost had this memorized but had a friend I could call who had done so.
