My buddy ran a BBS in the early 90's - this game was a blast.

Who didn't have this on their Windows 95?

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

Funny thing is, I still use Winamp today. In 2015. Goddamn it's such a good player.

I've spent all day pretty much as IT Support installing AutoDesk 2016 for people. Why does it have to be so damn large damnit.

Also for me, not so much software, but this screensaver. I don't even use screensavers anymore, but this was cool.

It was GW-BASIC for me;

Defragging in DOS and early versions of Windows... The best feeling, watching everything get put in place. I couldn't stop watching.

Winamp with the old black and green theme from the early 2000's

Xbox 360 blades

PS1 memory manager (grey square theme one)

Still gets usage til this day

I still use PSP8 nearly every day, it's a variation of that splash but same girl and all that, simple yet good software.

It's a game, but games are software!

What's old is new again. Sequel finally came out after 20 years.

[LucidMomentum]

No lie, I got literally the last version of Encarta that still had Mind Maze on it as a Christmas gift last year. I was so happy someone checked my Amazon wishlist.

Encarta Premium 2007 was the last to have it, I believe.

You can sort of play it here:

Much fun to be had as we crowded around the only computer at school.

The Incredible Machine was so much fun. I look back at this as fondly as Super Mario World and Donkey Kong Country.

I don't get it. Help?

Nero is the name of the company and the name of the Roman Emperor who is commonly though inaccurately said to have fiddled while Rome burned.

ROM is both an acronym for read-only memory (which the software burns) and German (Nero is a German company) for Rome.

Nero Burning ROM is both a description of the software and what Nero did.
