Yeah, I gave up on the prank title after everyone bitched about it, so this one is what it is. But now let's make you think this is actually running on a 133MHz Pentium computer manufactured in 1995...

So it ends here - it's time to share with you how much Windows has evolved since 1995. I'm running Windows 10 on a Packard Bell Legend 994CDT. It's thought to be impossible to run an operating system like this on a computer that doesn't have ACPI, but it can actually be done. Here it is, the final bridge between the vintage and modern worlds of computing!!!

20 years ago, the face of Windows changed completely. A brand new interface developed from years of research introduced greater ease of use for PC users of all kinds. The Start menu got its start in Windows 95, proving a highly effective replacement for the Program Manager. The File Manager was also ditched in favor of the Windows Explorer shell, where program launching and file opening worked in symbiance. Nearly everything in Windows 3.1 was vastly improved in Windows 95, to say the least.

It turns out the Legend 994CDT is not actually running Windows 10. I cheated with Remote Desktop Connection.

What could the end of the video mean?

Trey26:

You can find an easter egg name at 5:16.

Blue Horizon: I cannot find the name. Maybe it is just since I am not a native speaker. Anyway which name were you talking about?

flatrute: One of the names credited is Patrick Star, which was subtly edited in by Kugee. This was also in the original 2015 version as well, yet amazingly no one seemed to have noticed or pointed it out.

Blue Horizon: Well I had never watched Spongebob in my childhood and only see them sometimes in memes nowdays. I was and still am a nerd/otaku and Discovery and National Geographic were more of my jams. I also watched anime dubs of Cardcaptor Sakura, Creamy Mami, et cetera. I am male by the way.
