OS’es on The Web

 

I’ve seen a number of cool sites this week that are related to OS’es on the web. The first is a Commodore 64 Emulator in Silverlight 3. Like Marc, I also nicked this flashing cursor image from Scott’s site as it’s retro cool.

Next up is a site from our team in Argentina for an event over there. The site resembles the UI of Windows 1.01 and is amazingly cool and retro.

Finally we go full circle with a a partner from Uruguay, d2b Networks , who has developed a Windows 7-like version of their site. Some features they included:

  • Aero peek
  • Desktop peek
  • Carrousel selection of windows
  • Gadget for displaying sponsors

Love it.

    LOL - love the C= 64 Steve; what I learned to program on (showin' me age young 'uns...). Many moons ago, I also had a C= 64 emulator on my Palm Tungsten T, and it ran about 200 times faster than the 64. Made playing Paradroid and Zaxxon a mite tricky...! Progress, eh? :) Looking forward to migrating to 7 BTW. Cheers, K.
