Can we modernize 3.11?
Why modernize 3.11 when you can modernize OS/2 Warp instead?
My favorite bit of OS/2 snark from back then was "OS/2 = half an operating system"
Cause I don't know what OS/2 Warp is. Is that IBMs?
Yes, it's their OS from around the time. Was pretty good, worth playing around with a little, WinWorldPC has images if you're interested. It can run I think Windows 3.0 as well inside the OS if I remember right?
Oooo thanks! I'll take a look. I'm in the process of making a multiboot external drive.
Can't modernise peak operating system
I'd just want a file explorer and Firefox to run. That's all I ask for.
