When I was young, I started my journey into the computing world on an Emachines eTower 366i2. It ran . There were also computers and a single ancient (even at the time) .x computer around me, but our computer was running Windows 98. By Windows 98, almost 100% of the Windows interface was already set in stone (until Windows 7 that is, but we will get there). We transitioned to XP at some point, using the product key you all remember.

Windows 3 (1990) introduced Solitaire. Written by Wes Cherry as a Microsoft intern during 1988, the Windows team felt it would be a good inclusion to familiarise new users with the mouse. It featured card deck designs by Susan Kare. Learn more @ youtu.be/NBPibqYL2KQ! 🖱️🃏👀

Windows introduced desktop backgrounds in Windows 3 (1990), but the default was a solid colour until Windows XP (2001). Since XP shipped with a default wallpaper for the 1st time, it has become an integral part of each new release. Find out more @ youtu.be/KNqs5R67WoQ! 👀🖼️🎄

Release Candidates (RCs) were post-beta development builds of Windows. As their name suggests, devs were confident in the stability of these “candidates for release”. During testing, any last-minute issues would be fixed, leading to the final Release To Manufacturing (RTM) build.
