    Antique Computer Software (Seriously)

    Antique Computer Software (Seriously)


    Was doing some cleaning and came across these and thought it would bring back some memories for some of you...

    I upgraded my first Hewlett-Packard Pavilion Desktop Computer running Windows 3.1 with this software.




    And yes, the discs are still inside...



    Some of the first Point of View gun games...




    Enjoy!

    They'd really be worth some money if they had their original serial numbers on the box. I remember my days playing Doom and other old games on my old windows 95 lol.

    I have a couple of sealed copies of MS-DOS at home somewhere.

    Ahh, the good ole days before Microsoft clamped down on the licensing and you could install Windows over and over again. Good find!

    I'm suprised those weren't floppy disc instead of cd's.

    I still have the floppies for installing windows 3.1. Well, I think they are 3.1, I havn't looked at them in awhile. Sitting in a container with other ancient floppies.

    On a bit of a tangent, I have over 500 floppy 5.25 and 3.5" 720k from the Apple IIe/c era, about 1984 or so. Includes the Apple DOS that came with the Apple II, to further that, the monitor, drives and cpu/keyboard work perfectly. I also have the 80 column card with the extra memory.
