I would have opted for the chocolate bar.
Could you still edit a windows explorer folder with HTML/JavaScript in Windows 95? I'm sure I remember doing that when I was younger, to the great annoyance of my family lol.
I can't remember what the menu option was called, it might have just been right-click->edit, but it's been a long time.

Philistine!
It did run on DRDOS...ok... ... Are you saying you actually paid for it?!

So who else is in this thread is still using XP?
gg
Not actually using, but an old Toshiba laptop of mine that refuses to die, still has it installed. It's actually ironic...

I use Wndows 7 and Ubuntu for main programming, and use XP for bits n bobs like Bochs. If it crashes n burns, no big deal!
Still using XP at work. Though finally there are plans to upgrade "soon" (it's a very small company). We also rely on a few pieces of software from the 90's, so upgrading should prove interesting.
Well I have XP loaded in a VM but I can't really say when the last time I actually used it. But I still have a Windows 2000 machine that I still use semi regularly.

I know my stepdad still uses XP. The thing seems to be a virus magnet though, the highest IE version is 8, and that is what he uses to browse with. Still, XP and 7 were my favorite versions. I think XP was the first version I had that did actual multitasking, so it was a pretty big improvement.
