Incredibly impressive. Greetings and high fives from the intertubes.

Do you worry that Microsoft might threaten you for the Windows 98 image? I don't think they make a cent from it anymore, but big companies and common sense aren't common bedmates.

So far Microsoft haven't even sent me a C&D for https://win95.ajf.me/, and that site got media attention!

This is the most impressive part! Well done! So in theory, we can run anything that a real PC can run, albeit a Win98 speced PC. Any takers to get the next generation in the Windows series to run on it. WinXP? I think.

PS: Just came across the HN discussion around the said x86 emulator.
