computers from the past
from the past ? uh, actual insight from the m$-windooze development headquerters instead ! how one can see this ? well, it must be win-development, because : a: only one in-/output terminal can be used at any time b: for every person working on it you need ad least one technican for support (the person on the left) c: they are just installing the new win version ! this fact is acknowleged by the huge amount of tapes in the back ! ("please insert tape "win install tape #19 of 176" to continue....") d: they are still trying to get at least one installation to work. to avoid confusion with actual hardware the development takes place on theyre standard win dev platform, as you can see.... e: on the upper left side i guess there is a tape missing. that must be the tape containing their brand new, "no-install-without-number-safe" version of win xp that showed up the last days in some newsgroup. this explains why this version is installable without any number. it simply was a backup ! ;-) greets, chris -- visit me at http://mamalala.de
