How on earth have I missed the existence of this physics game for the last 12 years!? It even has the option to play levels directly in the browser!

people like you are keeping the internet alive

This is super cool! I admire those who make the effort to keep their software running on old unsupported OSs. There's a thriving community of new and existing XP users and I don't see it going away despite it being out of support for over a decade. It's one of the last great Windows versions and its long life ensured a huge software catalog is available for exploring, now including Principia.

Excellent write-up. Does anyone have the source of the background image shown in the last screenshot?

Legacy Update basically solves every post install update/driver issues

Legacy Update is really a godsend, props to the people maintaining it. The only driver I actually had to install manually via USB was just the Ethernet controller, and then after that was done I could just go online to Legacy Update and let it sit and download and install the rest.
