Exceptionally well done. With computing power what it is nowadays it's entirely possible to emulate/run the entire legacy OS in the browser

You've really nailed the 90s aesthetic of a webpage and how it's formatted :)

Thank you, but i cant take all the credit. This theme is taken and edited from an old now abandoned website i used to frequent a lot as a kid. You can read about it on the "page source" page via the menu on the top left. I learned from it, build upon it and made it mine :P

This is too good. I'm also working on my own desktop simulator and I might get some inspiration from this. Thank you for making this :D
1.2 mil! Think of all the caught fish and swept mines

You're blasting toward 2 mil! Well-deserved with all the work you've put into your phenomenal project. When will SANTAKU studio be releasing stickers? (also literally just noticing the interactive elements in the Santaku logo on santaku.dev - you think of everything)

Thank you! That means so much coming from the person who *checks notes* replicated a whole heckin OS on Neocities. Sorry I'm still recovering from my mind getting blown by that

Not a bad idea! I might add a "downloadable" patch/installer to add some Windows 2000 adjacent visual and audio components. Or maybe Windows 99 Plus! (that was requested).

Holy crap this is so involved. You even thought of someone jokingly going into CMD and typing del *.*!

Thanks! Your project is AMAZING! I could spend hours here hanging out with Clippy and counting down the hours to 2000.

Thank you! It's less about computing power and more about approach: most of it is a methodical recreation in TypeScript/Preact rather than emulation, which is why the footprint stays small (and why you could run this on a pretty old machine with a modern browser). That being said there are 1:1 emulations of different OS on sites like https://oldweb.today/?browser=ie6#http://win99.dev
