Michaelv.org has designed one of the coolest retro web apps, or maybe we should say retro OS: Windows 3.11 directly in your browser.

It does not contain all of the Windows 3.11 components, but it does include some of the classic applications that I’m sure you will never forget: Minesweeper, Calculator, Notepad, and many more.

It is written in JavaScript, XHTML and PHP; and let me tell you it has a great performance and usability. Well, actually, we shouldn’t surprise about that since Windows 3.11 only required around 3MB of memory and 15mb in the hard drive.

Enjoy!

  I’ve tested it with Firefox, Internet Explorer and Chrome and is working perfectly!
