    I remember 3 things about windows 3.1

    The simplicity of the layout.

    Spending hours ooing and awwing over Encarta Encyclopedia on CD

    and playing a starwars game that I cant for the life of me remember anything about other than flying through a canyon as the first level, and being too dumb and uncoordinated to actually complete the level and not crash.

    Computing was so much more interesting and entertaining back then… Now its so boring, everything drowning in same-ness.

        tell me about it… Like, in the 80s and 90s when stores had wild and radical design asthetics and were awesome places to wander around… and now they are all the same boring off white blandness.
