Windows 3.0 lives.

If you miss Windows 3.0, check out this site where you can download it and enjoy it all over again. Also available are Windows for Workgroups, Windows NT, OS/2, version 4 of Microsoft Office and other antique software titles. This does sound like a warez site, but the software here is so old that they are no longer for sale and not supported by the companies that made them.
The above web site is an excellent source of guest operating systems for the Bochs emulator I mentioned in an earlier post. I downloaded the Windows 3.0 setup files and installed it along with MS-DOS 6.22 on a 13MB virtual hard disk. It runs like a charm in Bochs.
