Very impressive that applications installed in Windows 3.0 still work on Vista.

And the 2 games that where installed under Dos still worked under win 7
 
Great find. I thoroughly enjoyed watching that video and find it amazing that Windows 7 was able to run programs installed from much earlier Windows installations. I give Microsoft some credit for that.
 
Cool, but did i blink or he miss ME ?.
 
best post ever

It says in the video they miss ME as it is very difficult to upgrade to and from.
 
nice vid cheers :)
 
i never realize how long its been until now we gonna hit Win 8
 
23 years of compatibility and Apple can't even manage half a decade before dumping an OS and dumping compatibility modes. But what I find funny is that Apple has a closed hardware system and can't even manage that. Should have it easier than M$.

They are kinda opposites. M$ is good with software compatibility in the long run but can't make hardware worth a darn. Apple...makes machines designed to last a long time, well...they used to, but discontinues software as soon as possible.
 
I feel like a geek for watching that whole video...

Now how big of a geek where you? Did you watch it in the small window or did you maximize it? :D
 
funny ive used all those os's cept for windows 1.0/2.0 i went from dos 6.22 to win 3.1

Also that guy needs to change the battery in his smoke detector i heard its distinctive beep a few times.

I watched it some time ago in full screen. :cool:

But yah this is cool stuff. It's like when a friend bought a new computer with Windows 7 and complained that he had to run the programming software he bought in 1995 in admin mode. I pointed out that the program was 16 years old and still worked, which is sort of amazing.

Full-size even had my own music going for it. :)
 
Some time ago I made a pc with 95, 98, 2000 and XP as a multi-OS system :) A shame I removed the HD and formated as it was quite a bit a work...
 
I've only done 95 98 ME 2000 XP vista and 7 :( But You have to give me credit, I was born in 92 so I was like 5 when I installed and used 95
