I think they were serious. W98 was bad but W98SE was much better. That was when I got into DAWs. I started out on Voyetra Digital Orchestra Pro and moved up to Home Studio. W2000 is my favorite OS.

Rain Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 (edited) Anybody remembers Windows RG? https://jamesweb.co.uk/windowsrg Playing with this thing actually does bring back tons of memories. Edited November 26, 2022 by Rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Even better, does anyone remember Windows 9? (Yes, there actually was one! ? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notes_Norton Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I remember DOS5 and Windows 3.1 I hated DOS. Why? I'm "Typoman" writing all wrongs. BTW, the only problem I have with Win11 is that I can't move the taskbar to the top of the screen anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is another reason for me not to get Windows 11. With XP I used to have toolbars on all 4 sides of a single monitor. It worked for ages. But then some people with issues complained when they accidentally moved docked toolbars and they floated on the desktop and they had no idea how it happened and how to redock it. So MS called it a rogue feature created by some random developer and Windows 10 only allows docking on one edge of a monitor. So, since my monitor is wider than it is tall, ever since I have had Win 10, I use the height for content and the left edge for the taskbar. It seems a waste of valuable real estate to have it on the bottom. If you create a movement to get MS to stop deciding what is best for customers and getting rid of customer choices, let me know. How about a change.org petition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark skinner Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 (edited) This video brought back some memories and most were good for this version of windows. What I really thought was "funny" was how they referred to the version of windows that they used in school. We were still using slide rules ! This is a Halloween Community College project I created (music computer lit) using a Win 98 notebook running Music Creator 3 (I think). The finished wav then went to the film class for a video production. It was pretty cool , wish I still had a copy .. All done in piano roll with a wireless mouse. "Never" froze or crashed . I Much later ran the original thru Ozone for a final mix , and kept it just for the memory. Enjoy or not .. mark https://soundclick.com/r/s8n8j7 Edited November 29, 2022 by mark skinner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notes_Norton Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 We had to use slide rules because the poorer kids couldn't afford a calculator. Who needs more than 3 significant digits anyway. I tossed the slide rule when I got the Texas Instruments scientific calculator. Back to windows. Now that I'm no longer doing scientific calculations (I graduated) the calculator in Windows is all I need. Notes ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 The Windows calculator IS pretty good! I always use it on the Scientific setting. Those TI calculators were the bomb in their day, weren't they? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick Math Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 I wonder if it's technically possible to make windows 98 look morden by customizing icons and all. For me, I was playing computer games with win98 back then. There were a lot of Japanese games. And I remember the music of these games were different depending on the computer. I still don't know exactly how and why. I was always enjoying these sounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they would take advantage of General MIDI and what you heard depended upon the implementation on your computer, though I'm not positive. Heck, General MIDI might be an officer in their Army for all I know! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
