Yeah, I noticed a OS2.exe file within one of the subdirectories ("system32"?) when I was nosing around the files looking for hidden images and tools.
Naturally I don't just double-click on any file, but exploring the folders has helped me learn a bit about how Windows works - and only goes to increase my hatred of the OS.

I have a whole bunch of old PC floppies from early 90's which I sometimes look at on my laptop. I know I have a few Commander Keen games among them, the Bill Gates screensaver (hehe), various tools and images on them. Would it be worth archiving them onto CD or not?
I don't have a list of what's on them as I'm still trying to do an inventory of my Amiga CD's, but I do know theres about 100 PC floppies that are currently readable.


Happy New Year,
