I went 3.1, 3.11, 95, 98, 98SE, that horribly slow Windows, Vista(Ugh, don't ask!), XP, 8.1, 10, & recently 11, even t hough I turned off updates!
Motherlovers!
In between, I tried Windows 2.0 on DOS 3, just to try it, & ran Netscape 0.9beta on it, on a 300 baud "high speed sysop's external modem"! (for real!)
Went onto AltaVista search engine & a couple BBSes just so they could screencap "that idiot user who called in at 300," & brag about it in sysop echoes!
The standard was 28.8K when I did that with 56.6K really making inroads. . .
I've gone online with QNX (experimental OS that Commodore apparently bought)
QNX was awesome -- I could boot, load my dfevices, & dial up & go on the net
all from a single floppy disk! (no room for downloads -- they had to go onto the HDD)

Ouch. . same. . . my spine is crushing hard one one of my discs.

My doctor told me to watch my weight, sol I've put it all up front here so it's easier.
Or, "When you've got a plow this good, you build a roof over it to protect it from the elements" *LOL*
