長いこと疑問に思っていた #Windows 付属 #キーボード #ドライバーの "日本語 PS/2 キーボード（106/109キー Ctrl + 英数）" だとか、 "106 日本語（A01）キーボード（Ctrl + 英数）" の謎が、 #Windows95 ファーストステップガイドのおかげでやっと解けた。ジェネリックキー表記 'カナ' の操作がCtrl + Shift + ひらがな (カタカナ) ではなく、Ctrl + 英数 (Caps Lock) となる (括弧内はShiftケースのキー) のがCtrl + 英数なのか

#Microsoft #Windows95 と #IBM PC DOSとで、 IBM 5576-001の配列が違うと知って頭を抱えています ( #OADG 109A キーボードでいうところのEndキーが、ページ呼び出し↙に割り当てられているのが #Windows 95で、終了に割り当てられているのがPC DOS) #キーボード (OEM版Windows 95のファーストステップガイドおよびPC DOS J7.0 ユーザーズ・ガイドより)

Inspired by MikeyEldey95 for Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, what if #Microsoft (in the Alternate Universe) actually made #Windows95 for video game consoles?

#SegaGenesis/#MegaDrive, #PlayStation1, #Nintendo64, and others!

Now would that be cool to see?

@retro_techie I've certainly gotten more done with #Windows95 over the course of my lifetime than I ever have with #Windows11.

That's a major driver in migrating to #Linux #Mint... So I could keep getting stuff done!

Well, with all the dark clouds overhead, glad least one of the projects we are slowly working on is actually coming together quite nicely... Now to move all our #Doom tools from the #Compaq Presario, and set things up to map like it was the mid-90s all over again. #Windows95

Any online #GlobalTalk DropBoxes today I could connect to received two greets via the #ACMS AppleTalk network.

One was from me testing out the freeware (black and white) version of Kid Pix from the Classic Mac Survival Kit (which I grabbed from that share on the WOzFest HQ zone), the other was an earlier text-only one from a couple of young visitors to the Museum.

Ben and Lucas, probably about 14-15yo, were suitably impressed (or at least pleasantly polite enough to appear suitably impressed) as I described just what #GlobalTalk was about, and the geographical spread of nodes online today.

I hadn’t yet located Kid Pix and due to time limitations and networking stability issues due to power circuit tripping while they were there, they only got to drop their greet in @billgoats’s Founding Node’s DropBox, so when everything was more settled later in the day after they’d left, I dropped their greet along with mine in any available DropBoxes, which they had intended to do.

They very generously donated $20 between them to the ACMS and promised to visit again. Lucas already has a Windows 9x PC he was gifted by a relative he is looking forward to getting working on, so it’s nice to see yet another generation engaging with old tech.

Speaking of Windows 9x, someone vandalised the running Acer Windows machine not far from the Macs I was working on – investigations continue to identify the perpetrator 🥸
