I'm watching old #TechTV coverage of the launch of #WindowsXP and it's bizarre how I'd forgotten it launched like days after 9/11. This entire launch coverage looks like a trump rally. They unveiled Windows XP to "God Bless America." They had a panel on if Windows XP was secure enough to combat terrorism. They openly questioned if Windows XP was going to be sent to the wrong, "muslim" countries.

@karstenbondy @elonmusk hi Karsten! Good to see you here. Are other #TechTV people here?
This is funny. Just found @leo on his own Mastodon server. Leo, hello! Big fan back in the days of the OG TSS. I was actually on the show once, as a caller, though I cant seem to find the footage. 😩
Maybe one day I'll find it and post it here. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks! The show led me on a path of interest (and now career) in IT! 😀
