My Atari 400 has built-in BASIC.
I also have the BASIC command interpreter. It's a crude operating system, but it does cover loading data from cartridge and casette
Dated 1979 but I got mine around 1982.

[Kadarin]

3 years ago I was running MacOS 7.5.3 on a Mac IIci... (I was able to update it to 7.5.5 after adding RAM) (the scary thing is.. it was my primary computer at the time..)

 

[Aves]

I have legal versions of every Windows OS ever with the exception of NT 3.51

 

[SSP]

Legally eh? That would be Red Hat 5.0

 

[yakko]

It is a toss up between Caldera DOS and IBM DOS 5.0.

 

[loup garou]

MSDOS 4.0

 

[shiner]

MS DOS 3.3

 

[Linflas]

Atari TOS (OS for the Atari 520/1040). MS-DOS 3.3. I probably have my original download of Manchester Linux sitting around in a disk pile as well.

 

[Fritzo]

Well....let's take a look at the shelf:

I have a nice copy of OS/2 1.2. I also have 2.0, 3.0 and 4.0 (which was really cool....it was a lot like XP without the compatibility!)
I also have Windows 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, 3.11, as well as NT 3.1 and 3.51.
Then there's DOS 3.3, 4.0 (worst DOS EVER), 5.0, 6.0, and PC DOS 7.0 (best DOS EVER)
Oh....and there's a copy of GEOWorks sitting up there too (like Windows with a Mac interface)

I work for an ISP that used to be a network consultant company...we have lots of cool old stuff like that. I have a Toshiba T3200sx "portable" computer on my desk for a conversation piece with Windows 3.0 on it right now. It has a 386sx/20, 1200 baud modem, 20 meg HD, 2 megs RAM, built in 3.5" drive, 10" orange LCD screen, and weighs a good 20lbs! It cost $7000 new....now we just have it around to laugh at

Man...I love remembering this old stuff----reminds me of my dateless college days heheheheheh......

MS-DOS 6.22
Windows 3.1
OS/2 Warp V3.0 (I want 4.0 so badly!)
Macintosh OS 7.5.3 (IIRC... it's been a while since I've looked at it)
