I still got Windows 2.0 on 5 1/4 floppy disks if you are interested

I remember that... Well, actually, I remember more of Windows 3.1, and its still kicking around on some old 386 lying on my floor of computer clutter. Nice offer though.

Both XP Pro and 2k Pro are about the same price. I'd go with XP, you'll get a skinable interface and ClearType.

Windows 95 if you are set on a M$ OS. I recently upgraded a computer to Win 95 and it runs great.

 

[Acanthus]

2k, especially with SP4 installed.

Windows XP.


Your post says games, so I recommend XP. Welcome to AT BTW, Steve!!!
