Today I find myself working on a Pentium99 with 40 MB of RAM running Windows 95 (installed in 96 so far as I can tell). This thing has been used daily in a retail setting since 1996 and is currently being used for online receiving. After a bit of standard cleanup today it looks like it is ready to continue its' job. Believe it or not the thing still does exactly what it needs to do and (aside from the time it takes to open programs and restart) does the job just as well as a new one would. ... my question is .... how many of you use systems this old on a daily basis?
