In all fairness it's probably not worth emulating pre Win95 versions of Windows.
Interestingly enough, Win3.1 runs in DOSBox.

Hey, it really isn't much more than a graphical DOS shell after all!

Well, so are Win95/98, for that matter...

I still have an iso image of Win 3.11 somewhere. I used to have Win 3.1 on floppy, but was missing the last floppy at some point. Anytime setup would ask for the last disk, if I pressed enter enough times, install would just move on and continue anyway...

Please don't tell me you actually run X as root on a regular basis...

I once had this idea, too (to give root a specific X/desktop config), but now I don't really want to bother. I'm worried about inadvertantly changing global settings that would affect all users, not just root.

oh god no lol. i was just really bored. when i switched my default runlevel from 3 to 4, i could no longer launch graphical apps as root using sudo (it gives an error about screen not found or something) so in order to use graphical apps as root (never necessary, but i do prefer xconfig to menuconfig, probably the only time i'd ever run a desktop as root)i have to start X as root. i figured since i was there, i might as well make it look halfway decent.

Pretty neat. I need to ask... Is that a folder widget or something? Never seen something like that before.

Oh ok, thanks. I'm not a fan of kde, but I might try to find something like that just to mess with.

Noooo , this is ancient pic... most ancient ship from Imperial Navy existing today is the Mikasa Senkan

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_battleship_Mikasa

Azuma Senkan ( Kotetsu Senkan initially ) was scrapped in the beginning of 20th Century...
