[@MukulApple]

It's sad that we hardly hear starting sounds anymore or experience the joy that goes along. Starting a PC back in the day was an act of transporting yourself into a different world for a few hours. Now, I just put my laptop's flap down as soon as I am done without much regard to logging off or shutting down. And since I would just as quickly start staring at my cellphone, there's no changing of worlds. It's the same digital world everywhere - just different devices.

You can still hear the startup sounds, just turn them on.

I love how it got progressively "worse" with time, lol. I love the Win95 version, because it has this "welcome home" feel to it.

After 15 diskettes changes to install it, to hear that Windows 95 out of a Soundblaster 16 was something incredible for a 14 years old nerdy Brazilian kid! Thanks dad for that.

Oh Windows 98...... I can still remember how it opened to a new dimension : Walking with Dinosaurs, Dinosaurs game, Tarzan, the old Windows media Player with a theatre setup, some pre-installed games ! 😃 nostalgia.

[@mackenziewachter2508]

When I was little, we used to have Windows 98 on a very old computer. I remember when I played kid-friendly CD games like Jump Start Toddlers and a few Clifford games. We also used to have an eMachines computer powered by Windows 98 at my daycare center as well, but we have the Musica sounds. At daycare, we had a few games for the operating system such as an Arthur game, a Blue's Clues game, Wheel of Fortune, and Jump Start Kindergarten. At home, I also played games on the PBS Kids website like Teletubbies, Barney and Friends, and Between the Lions. Man! Such nostalgia!

[@skyguy1988]

i actually like windows 2000 the best. very wholesome feel. like "this is going to be a great day! :) "
