I have a copy of that.

My P160 mobo (then I upped it to 200) that I got W95b with finally died.


Drifting aimlessly in the general shoals of 'smaller' Win OSes toward
smaller larger Win OSes....

... I just recently learned about WFLP Windows Fundamentals for Legacy
PCs, and when I started researching that (the legitimate one from MS)
and related non-MS warez, since MS isn't selling FLP to 'the rest of
us', I started learning about various versions of TinyXP such as the
Beast and others.  These are stripped down versions of XP, the
degree/severity to which they are stripped down depends on what you are
using it for, such as gaming or whatever.

I'm thinking that the box that I have Windows XP Media Edition on needs
to have some partitions for linuxes and also a TinyXP install.  Tiny is
supposed to install and operate very fast, with a tiny registry and
generally tiny footprint;  compared to XP, not compared to W9x/es.
