I can't believe it's already been 32 years, since my favorite TV show ever, The X-Files, premiered. Happy anniversary!

Today marks 30 years since the premiere of 'Xena: Warrior Princess' back in 1995. A show that was never ashamed of its campiness, but at the same time managed to be groundbreaking on multiple levels. Setting new standards for female action heroines, featuring a main character that was messy and flawed, physically strong and athletic, who started as a villain seeking redemption.
Xena, despite its cheesiness and often ridiculous premise, succeeded in pushing the boundaries of queer representation, challenged stereotypes, defied several of the sexist tropes of '90s media, explored LGBTQIA+ themes, even themes of gender identity, and made a clear statement against the stigma surrounding HIV/AIDS at the time.
It may not be a flawless masterpiece, but it's a beloved cult classic for good reason.

Does anyone still remember "FURY 3" ? As one of the earliest titles for Windows 95, it was used extensively in Microsoft's advertising campaign for the system. The game is actually fairly simple and runs smoothly even within an 86Box VM!
"Shoot 'em up!"

Time to have fun! Windows 95 PLUS! adds some much needed colours to Windows 95. And "3D Pinball - Space Cadet" and "Microsoft Hover!" provide a bit of leisure time. Oh, well... it's something. 😜

After 30 years, I guess it's finally time for me to accept Windows 95 into the ranks of "retro" operating systems. I just added a new 86Box VM... A decent 80486DX4 with 100MHz, 16MB RAM and 1.2GB HDD should be more than enough to start with.
This makes me feel a bit old... 😉

I just used this Windows 95 VM to install Office 95. Unfortunately, it doesn't have "Clippy" yet. I think he was introduced with "Office 97". Sad retro noises....
