That was just an awesome and entertaining video about retro hardware... Cool to see someone else with that joy on good old hardware! Thanks bro for this video!

[superduder]

Wow! Great machine, great video. Was a blast watching the build and the large amount of classic games. Loved it.

[MidnightGeek]

What are you talking man, we need the 8 screws! :)) Nice video, Win 3.1 will always have a special place!

So many hours of my childhood spent playing the shareware version of Alien Carnage! aka Halloween Harry.

All this video just to hear Descent and Terminal Velocity, best games and OSTs in the MS-DOS era. Love your Roland setup/speakers! The games sound exactly like they did to me years ago!

That sure was fun to build, and for us to watch.
The case looks pretty nice and in good condition.
Alien Carnage is a true classic, played the shareware a lot, and had no 'access' to the full version.

Workplace shell for Windows 3.1 by IBM is a must if you prefer Windows 3.1. Calmira is great for people who are familiar with Windows 95 but it maybe a bit resource consuming.

We once had a Pentium 233 MMX on a super socket 7 board in the windows 95/98 era... I miss that machine, rumor has it the uncle my old man gave it too may still have it somewhere in storage.

Specs:
Pentium 233 mxx
Super socket 7 aopen motherboard
1gb sd ram
16mb 3d blaster voodoo banshee Graphics card (not sure if it was APG or PCI)
Sound blaster live value sound card
A high speed (for the mid 90s) cd rom and a cd burner (yeah totally guilty of rippin cds and copying my games to virtual cds to improve load times)

Hi, from where can I get this WINOT iso :) ?

[RGF]

wow that hardware is a overkill for windows 3.1 :-) so many memories with windows 3.1....

[RandomBSOD]

Love the build (and the humor) but why Windows 3.1 and not 3.51 ? 🤔

I'm gonna guess that you are an Aquarius.
