I can't believe I'm nostalgic for an operating system built by #Microsoft. I don't think I even ran Windows 98 for any length of time - I switched to NT 3.51, then NT 4, then Windows 2000 before finally making the switch to #Linux, with #Ubuntu Dapper Drake. I never looked back. This'll be the first #Windows machine in the house for years!
I don't think I have the heart (or the interest) to put an ancient #Debian on it. I'd sooner try IBM OS/2 Warp 4. At work back in the day, we built an X.400 mail client which ran on OS/2 Warp, but I never had a chance to use that OS as a daily driver.
Another option is #Solaris 7. I did daily-drive that thanks to the magic of #ReflectionX. I loved Solaris, especially with the #GNU tools installed.
Many of these more esoteric options will depend on getting a functioning floppy drive.
