But it’s now the year 2021 already.
Yeah, time changes.
This is an old Toshiba Laptop from 1999 with Intel Pentium II (400 MHz) and Myst from 1995
I really want to make an let’s play with that combo some time in the future

Ponifying the icon of Pegasus Mail might be a bit hard for me. Because I’m not an artist and not good at drawing, haha!
Ponify it!
Haha, I think Win98 is a bit too old. XD
The setup sequence is relatively smooth and fast (in VMWare, at first I tried Hyper-V and the setup program keeps telling me that some corrupted files were detected, not sure whether there are any work-arounds XD). However, the build-in programs (such as IE5, or newer IE6) are too old for the contemporary Internet world. They can’t handle HTTPS connections correctly and just show the error pages when accessing Derpibooru and other websites.
The kernel and APIs of Win98 are also too outdated… Although I can install some newer browsers, such as Firefox 10.0ESR and Opera 11.50, with the help of KernelEx, these browsers are also outdated and they can’t render the pages of Derpibooru correctly. I also tried other programs like 7-Zip and Pegasus Mail, some of them can work, but can’t work well.
Too draw a conclusion, Win98 is suitable for good memeories of days gone by. ;)

But who cares : )
Anyway is this operating system still works well?
