Time-waster of the week: A website of retro restarts

Time-waster of the week: A website of retro restarts

Revisit operating systems of old with this free vintage rebooting page.

If you've been tinkering away at computers for more years than you can remember, this website is a nostalgic goldmine. It's an interactive tribute to the most significant operating systems in the history of computing. From the Apple II's ProDOS to Windows XP; they're all here on one page. 

Upon entering the website, vistors are presented with a collage of shutdown windows. Clicking on each command window takes you to a faithful reproduction of the OS in action. 

Amiga's Workbench OS was an early pioneer of the file/folder GUI. It's one of many operating systems included on the website.
