Am I braking the laws NOW, in 2001, asking for a jurassic obsolete unused outdated buggy ugly uggy and completely forgotten system copy?

You can surely find it at a computer show and if you have a friend that has a resellers license or know someone who can buy stuff from Ingram Micro, then you can surely get a copy. There are few around, but few people have it. I would be an old PC at a friends/mom's place that isn't even used has Win 3.11 on it.

Getting a legit copy would prove to be difficult.

I got it not too long ago and burned it onto a cd, very handy to have when installing an upgrade ms os

if all else fails, hit e-bay up (yeah i know... wont let me post the actual word here) You can usually find very archaic things like ancient os' on there

I like these experiences... for example: once I heard that WIN3.0 had an option to be used with a CGA monitor! I never tried it, but I am very curious to see how a graphic interface looks with a CGA monitor...

That's it... just curious...

This is why all anandtechers are smart guys!

Hit a few Warez sites, you'll find it quick enough...

*Prepares for the barrage of flames for mentioning the forbidden 'warez'*

I'm not sure how the mods will feel about this so I'm sorry if I piss any of you off, but i do think that downloading win3.11 is not illegal so I put a site up on 50megs.com.
