#2I was pretty young when I last saw web pages look like this but it warms my heart to see one again (unmodified since October 2001!). I think I’m going to find a way to get this running on an old machine this week…

Truly. Immediately awash with nostalgia. Although I do feel its missing a spinning GIF, a visit counter and a visitors book :-)

#6If you want less Excel and more Wargames in your nuclear simulations, DEFCON is fun to spend a few hours in once in a while.

#8The screenshots are very confusing to me... it appears to be a Windows (95?) application, with variable width fonts, graphs, mouse support [0], but then certain elements, like the menu [1], look like a class DOS apps, with fixed width fonts and ANSI line drawing characters. Some screens, like data tables [2], look like they're completely DOS-based, while others have a weird combination of DOS and Windows elements [3] [4] [5].
Quite strange! I suppose perhaps it started life as a DOS application and then moved to Windows, with old pages keeping the same fonts/layouts to save time. Makes for an odd look...

Screenshots look like early Windows 95, so ordovician give or take a few MY.

Looks a lot like a old pascal program.
