Internet Archive Adds Win3.1 Emulator, a Ton of Software
Oh my goodness. The Internet Archive has created a Windows 3.1 emulator that runs in JavaScript, AND made over 1500 software programs available. “Now, Scott and his crew have done it again with the Windows 3.X Showcase—made up of a whopping 1,523 downloads (and counting), all running in a surprisingly robust, browser-based JavaScript emulation of Windows 3.1. You’ll recognize offerings like WinRisk and SkiFree, but the vast majority of the collection sticks to a particularly wild world of Windows shareware history, one in which burgeoning developers seemed to throw everything imaginable against 3.1’s GUI wall and see what stuck.” The “Scott” in this quote is Jason Scott. Could I have any more of a nerdcrush on this guy?
