They left out mention of OS/2 which is what lead to the NT series. MS had a huge hand in it.

True but I don't think it was ever available from Microsoft and IBM drove it in a direction that was self-serving as IBM are wont to do.

I used it for awhile. 1.2 and 1.3 were sad. 2.0 wasn't too bad, warp 3 and 4 were quite well done, but it was much too little, too late. The underlying kernel design was awesome and still used today. Ahh, the old days.
Twice that many, ha ha haI think Windows 95 got its name because of the number of floppy disks it came on(not counting the Boot Disk).
(Windows 10 would require about 1,000 DMF 1.68 MB disks)

Do they talk about mouse droppings? That was a wonderful undocumented feature of Windows prior to about 3.1.
