I guess kind of interesting its been broken for quite some time. If that's what it is

qemu.exe -L pc-bios -m 1024 -smp 1 -hda "d:\virtual machines\Long Horn 6.0.4093.0\Long Horn 6.0.4093.0.vmdk" -std-vga

I'm not doing anything that special

qemu.exe -L pc-bios -m 1024 -smp 1 -hda "d:\virtual machines\Long Horn 6.0.4093.0\Long Horn 6.0.4093.0.vmdk" -std-vga -cdrom usa4029x86fre.prolonghorn.iso -boot d

for the most part the Xp pe boot thing just goes blank... I never really tried it on qemu before, and Id guess people were using kvm so they'd never notice.

I know [SENSITIVE CONTENT]people used to think I was paranoid for carrying my green card & passport all the time. Like they'd never been stopped by the police and referred to ice. ha! who's paranoid now?!

ancient qemu, old qemu, current(ish) qemu all do the same cpu from pentium3 , phenom or skylake... guess it's a fundamentally broken thing. not that it matters longhorn is such a dumpster fire.

UWP notepad is pure trash. I don't know how they would imagine anyone actually paying for it, I'd pay money to have it removed from 11, and not complain about it.

Noteapd is my "IDE" and I really dislike the uwp thing, so I do my best to avoid it.

I don't know how you can scew up repeat search/replace, but MSFT found a way.

Going through some of my old crap from Hong Kong, I found my 25Mhz 286! .. I had planned on getting some neat AT tower case, and making the ultimate OS/2 machine out of this thing.

I'm just happy to still have the board.

Stumbling around with old versions of qemu on OS X, I was surprised when I got Citrix Multiuser booting up again. I'd forgotten all the fun with VM memory snapshots & restores. Kind of forgot how they got embedded in the qcow2 (only!) disks.

Either way it's nice to have a differencing disk image that won't get destroyed, and a couple seconds from execution to login prompt.

Now the real question is, should I even try to building something with it?

I've always been impressed at the Marklar OS X 10.4.1 image, especially if you can run it on supported hardware. It's amazing how well it actually runs, considering what it is.

While the GMA900 never set the world on fire, in terms of OpenGL performance, it's enough for simple stuff like ssystem.

Some of us only had one PC back then, and we used to print stuff at home, so IRQ 7 was for the printer. I'd never seen madness of the soundblaster on IRQ 7 until DOSBox TBH.

But then again, I'm the madman that wired up the turbo button so when it was engaged/lit the CPU ran at maximum speed. Apparently Turbo means slow mode.

Indeed! The most exciting thing I got access to back in the day was a shovelware CD-ROM on a Christian BBS that had some super early Linux stuff on there. It was the boot/root stuff from way back in the day, and then some SLS. It started the Linux adventure and compiling everything. I remember thinking it was super unstable and tracking down the whole Minix thing to build it myself. Patches for patches, for things it was so involved.

I guess its why building mach wasn't so scarry.

It took a while but eventually I did get a 9600 baud 'field upgradable/dsp' modem that sometimes could 14.4 but it mostly did 9600 which I was still amazed with. It's also back when people would meet in person to swap disks, and then eventually I'd help other people install Linux into those linux install parites. And OS/2 as well, well before NT 3.5

when i moved to america back in 92 it was so cool to go to some discount appliance store had 2400 baud internal modems for something crazy like $10 or maybe $5? It was great, new printer, modem lots floppies on the cheap.

I used to get booted from all the local BBS's as I was too slow, but I was so thrilled to step up from 1200 baud.

Not sure if anyone knows aiju (Julius Schmidt) Her pdp-11 javascript emulator is broken but there is no contact short of a paypal link that denies me as my country isn't allowed...
It was pretty rad: https://pdp11.aiju.de/

I mirrored it and fixed the pathing issues so it works again: https://virtuallyfun.com/pdp11/

I thought it was pretty cool though, shame to leave it broken.
