No, not XP ... Me. If you never tried Me it's like XP, only much less stable, and damn slow. Still, 3.1 would be a pain to run cuz you're stuck with really old, buggy, shitty apps.

worker201:
At least 3.1 had a viable shell and an integrated command line interface.  Even though it was a hacked-up piece of shit.

GenuineAdvantage:
big deal. Around here there are about 2000 in the university, and this is a small non-entity place.

And speaking of the American public school system. If you think it's anything more than a warehouse to keep kids and teens out of adults' way in the day, then  you're quite an idealist.  :D

Btw, I doubt 3.1 would run on a modern PC. I tried running 98 on a brand new PC a few months ago. It choked for some reason. It has something to do with the processor. It could probably be fixed to run somehow, but who really cares.

Sadly, that can't be more true :(

You're telling me. It was just a few years ago for me, I remember it well.
