I miss tinkering around with these pc's as a kid. It was a magical world that was opening up for me. Believe it or not. I even miss the smell of these pc's
I used to go to the place my dad worked and when he would lock the place up at night he would turn the lights off and and I would just listen to the sound of 20+ computers in a room and see all the small LED lights everywhere. I remember the sound and smell like it was yesterday. I would go on the computers and play games and look at pictures of dinosaurs on the internet lol!
What's funny is despite the way lower specs, this computer seems just as responsive and functional as today's computers and software. Not much has changed in actual capability, but software has become complex and developers have decided that slow, heavy interpreted languages like javascript are the way to go
This video is so cool! I'm 30 and Windows 95 was the first OS I had contact with. I was around 4 and used to LOVE playing with Paint. Watching you interact with this computer was a real joy haha Many memories about when my aunts let me play with their PC. I also love the typography and the whole aesthetics.
Me too. I'm 28 (born in '94). We always laughed at that start up sound with my dad back then 😅 that computer seriously took around 5 to 10 minutes to start up xD nowhere near as fast as the one in this video
I will turn 29 in December, and it was a joy for me to watch this video, It just made me smile when I saw him interacting with paint and some games. I used to play with some MS-DOS games such as Prince of Persia, The Lion King as well. God bless you all ❤.
I am also 30 and Windows 95 was the first OS I remember. At my now demolished childhood home, we had a PC in the living room. Circa 1997-maybe 1999, it had Win 95. Paint was probably my favorite program on there as well. I also remember discovering the countdown clock and setting it to count down 99 minutes. It would say the minute numbers out loud, “99”, “98”, “97” and so on which I found interesting. Also, games like SimTown and Sonic’s Schoolhouse were a lot of fun.

@@Lunaholic94I had a laptop in 2003 in which i installed windows 95 to have the feel of good old days. It was 1Ghz 256MB system and it was blazing fast with windows 95 and 98 both but with windows xp SP2 it started crawling. Requirements used to change very fast those days. My second PC was bought in 2011 which could run xp and 7 very well those times. Now my son is using that computer on windows 10. The only thing i upgraded was RAM from 4GB to 8GB. Till 2010 all computers used to get outdated within 2-3 years.
That is one awesome computer. It's wonderful that someone still cares about Windows operating systems from the 1990s. Even though I now use Windows 11, I have more nostalgia and connection with operating systems from Windows 95 to Windows 7.
I had a huge collection of microsoft OS in a single CD. Some person had copied the folders with most important files in a single CD which booted up with a menu. You could install anything from DOS upto windows Millenium. I also collected all CDs after these too. But at one time I had to leave the collection being busy in work.
I remember my old windows 3.1 computer! Now I run windows 3.1, 95 and 98 all on my phone. Crazy how far technology has come in just a little over a couple decades.
My first experience with Windows was when I started school! My school had a Windows 3.1 including a few Living Books titles and I LOVED those! The school also still had a BBC Micro from the 1980s! Around halfway through the decade, some friends of ours got a Windows 95 and we got one not long after. Windows 95 is pure computer bliss! I am planning to build a gaming PC sometime (hopefully) within the next 18 months, I hope a virtual machine can be made available for Windows 12 (if it's out by then) that'll allow one to run old Windows 95/XP software titles! I'd love to revisit Living Books title Harry and The Haunted House, scratch the itch my inner Simpsons fan has for revisiting Virtual Springfield and check out that Supreme Snowboarding game I mainly care about because a Dreamcast version was planned but abandoned!
I was a high school senior when Windows 95 came out. Windows 95 made Windows much easier to use than previous versions It introduced the taskbar and start menu. You could finally save files with names longer then 8 characters and have shortcuts on the desktop
@@petermen_2005 It's good to know that it's not just my nostalgia that makes me like the Win 95 interface so much. Even the box it came in was colorful and gorgeous. I'll never forget the storefronts filled with Windows 95 boxes at the entrance, lol.
That sliding door technique was very interesting for its time. Nice Windows 95 PC demonstration! I used to have fun with an actual Windows 95 computer when I was little. The last time I used it was in 2002.
