Buy Windows 1.0

Steve Ballmer is the CEO of Microsoft. In this 1985 commercial, he's trying to sell Windows 1.0. Despite never having seen his slightly creepy rant, I had a copy of Windows 1.0. I couldn't run it in real time, since I had only 1MB of extended RAM (shadow RAM).

Those were the days. My computer had not one, but two 5.25" floppy drives, a CGA video card, and a whopping 40MB hard drive. I don't know how I did it, but I managed to fill up that hard drive.
