1990s
Done with the 80s? Let's go explore the newer versions of those OS and software which survived to the new decade and the ones which were newly introduced. This was the decade in which Windows evolved from a shell on top of DOS to a full fledged OS.
Coming Soon
2000s
Operating Systems released in 2000s are not really that "old", so we are not going to cover proprietary operating systems from that era, but we are going to cover the open source ones. This includes Linux distros and modern version of classic OS.
