I have a really old laptop and need this to test if it works...

If anyone has it please post the links here or email me and I will give you ftp details to upload it.

Thanks.

Oh my....... what an entrance.

You need DOS first right? There are free versions of DOS out there. Then read the rules here before your post # 2.

EDIT: I swear it said M3h had exactly 1 (one) post here a few minutes ago. What can I say now? Read the rules before your post no 36 here?!

billybob3: You think they (removed the copyright thing and) let it loose for anyone to distribute at their own will? I think that should have made some headlines.

Is Windows 3.1 even considered warez anymore? Microsoft discontinued it, so that would make it abandonware. Which, from what i've heard, isn't illiagle(SPELLED THAT WRONG) to share...

even though they don't make money off of it anymore, it is still illegal

.unicorn,

I saw the same thing... M3h's posting count was at 1 when I first read this thread...** :blink:

I agree that is is still considered illegal to give out a copy of an outdated OS, like Windows 3.1 - unless - it is clearly stated on M$'s site saying you are now able to freely distribute it...

[Edit-] Looks like M3h had a nice convo with the thankbot.*

That is why M3h's post count shot up from 1 to the 30's... :)* Some nice detective work, eh?* :lol:
