Do you have that Windows 3.1 version that came with the Compaq that had the DE that was like a paper folder instead of an empty desktop, and that you could put the icons in the different tabs of the paper folder?

Wow. That was a bit of nostalgia, just to read some of the names.

Is TempleOS in here?

Is there a way to see a list of the operating systems included without having to download and run the tool?

This is awesome.

I hadn't realized Domain/OS emulation was viable these days. It's one of the few systems that has actually "lost" features - the terminal-window-like thing (called pads, I think?) when in line mode had a dividing line at the bottom where your unconsumed typeahead was visible and you could continue to edit it until it got read - not just one line, the entire unconsumed input. (Not that it's a particularly desirable feature - it's just one that I'm pretty sure you can't implement with ptys...)

Very neat to see this project come to completion Andreww.

Are there any any operating systems that you'd like to add to the collection but haven't been able to find?

Maybe someone here at HN could help with that.

Could really do with a torrent. 120GB at 3MB/sec...

Cool

quite a decent collection. and actual working osses.

one that i noticed missing: Novell Netware, I spent several years in de 90s developing software for it.

3.x, 4.x ran on relatively regular 32-bit PC server hardware. 2.x ran on the 80286 in protected mode, the only OS I know which did that.
