No, I don't.
In 2003 I was a user of Windows 98SE.
Liked this much more than XP.

And I don’t remember. Just returned from the army in July of that year(2003).
I remember then immediately bought Samsung C100 phone(it's still alive, but it's in the closet):

...and then computer with 512 megabytes of RAM and Celeron 1.7 processor for socket 478 and the main operating system was, of course, Windows XP:

@ taersh

yeah, W98-2 better than W95osr2.3. Went to the bitter end with 98-2 and bought the namesake EEEpc. Then moved to the Atom version. Admin was/is just a frontdoor for problems... mostly big ones.

My celly around 2002-2012 was a Motorola device C139 then C155. I had in those days Cingular monthly. Then Tracfone.
Now that Verizon has bought Tracfone from one Carlos Slim... Tracfone is in the porcelain funnel, just press the little lever.
At least my 3G phone is good until late 2022... crosses fingers and knocks wood (my head :mrgreen: )

@oui That was one of the first "Live" cds I booted to. I clearly remember the seagull ;) I think the oldest one I still may have is 0.7 if I could even find it.

How new was the hardware you booted it from?

I have the hardware in the house. it is a "souvenir" and allow to start one of the next Puppy's reading, writing and saving it's stuff on CDR-W :mrgreen: (it was Puppy 1.3 .. 1.5 I can't remember and can't also remember which release it was exactly, but it was one of the best Puppy's and one permitting the most as you only did need an operable CD-RW drive able to read and write! Puppy was independent from all other type of drives...

but to answer you question I have to hold the old bookPC. as soon I do so what, I will give you more details if interesting for you.

As this thread shares our bygones, I thought my being among the 'really' old guys, you might appreciate this occurring as I approached senior status. I remember...

Enjoy, as we acknowledge how far we've come from those days of OLD. :)
