SP2 enters the chat…
Sup peeps. I’m stable af.
OS/2 enters the chat.
Eldritch demonic screams in the background
Pay no attention to the daemons I’ve had to restrain, please.
You could write to Microsoft and they would mail you a CD with SP2 on it for free.
I remember a photo of a guy holding the burned XP CD while he’s standing at the front entrance of Microsoft. Pretty cool
lollers I was just going through my stuff and agonizing if I should chuck my XP stuff.
Well you’re a huge nerd!
I feel the same way about my Composite to SCART adaptor cable
I have one, and I’m in North America… I saw it at a thrift store and recognized it, not something I expected to see at a Goodwill.
Yeah American TVs never seem to have them. I’m not sure why.
They were awful actually, they were far larger than they needed to be and they were very much like USB in that you needed to turn them over three times in order to insert them. It’s not even as if the picture quality was even any better than composite so I don’t know why we bothered.
I think it was based on the 1960s VTR connector on studio equipment, or Cinch-Jones connectors from WWII. Quite large, yes. I think the connector could carry composite as well as RGB signals, and have various pass through modes.
Leaked an installation key? Microsoft is gonna send a helicopter to raid you…
I’ll take my huge stack of Windows 3.1 floppies and see myself out.
I recently cleaned out some boxes of random stuff I had in one of my wardrobes and found several discs like this, some with Ubuntu 5-8.04, random drivers and other fun stuff. Huge nostalgia trip going through them. I also found this CD my dad gave me when I was 20 and had just started smoking weed:
(the title is in Swedish and means “a chill disc”)Sadly lost him in December last year, RIP dad. I normally don’t smoke anymore but I’m gonna get a small piece of hash and smoke it while playing this in memory of him.

damn now my XP serial is public for everyone, I thank you NOT!
The fact I recognise that key.
(Also my husband agrees with me that looks eerily like my handwriting and is the kind of disk i used OP are you in Australia…)
I can remember installing Windows 95 with floppy disks, that was slow. XP was great because you could finally do minor things and it not require a reboot.
I still have 46 disks of Office floating around somewhere
University keys are available online.
I’m trying to get my 89 year old dad to set aside the tapes of the first games I programmed on our Commodore 64 in like 1983 when he moves this year. I really want them.
Early mud stuff. I’ll post it if he finds it.
If you do post them, let me know. I’ll spin up an emulator and give them a try!
I will! Just so you know, I was 12, so I cant vouch for the quality of writing or gameplay, lol.
Should have left “Win XP” out. We know FCKGW. ☺️
Hey, that’s MY activation key!
