Twenty years of Windows
It is now 20 years since the first Windows operating systen came out. For those who are interested in some of the history of this system that now monopolizes the PC, the Desktop Pipeline has a series of articles. Here is an excerpt:
Since 1985, we’ve lived through more than 15 major releases of the operating system we love, love to hate, or just plain hate — often simultaneously. This retrospective begins with an exploration of the controversy and decision-making process leading up to the release of Windows 1.0.
Next, we’ll explore, celebrate, and mourn the highs and lows of subsequent releases of Windows over the last 20 years. We’ll take a look at the Windows timeline in the context of computing and world events, followed by a quick look at the future of Windows.
