For Your Inspection: Source Code For Photoshop 1.0

gbooch writes "With the permission of Adobe Systems, the Computer History Museum has made available the source code for Photoshop version 1.0.1, comprising about 128,000 lines of code within 179 files, most of which is in Pascal, the remainder in 68000 assembly language. This the kind of code I aspire to write. The Computer History Museum has earlier made available the source code to MacPaint."

    Interestingly this code is supposedly in there. (According to the comments on the page). Somebody should check the Adobe code...

    He's not, I've personally tried, I tried with 98 because that's what I have retail. The 98 machine boots almost instantly and opening windows are instant, try it yourself, otherwise stay ignorant and in disbelief.

    What else? Modern malware doesn't work on 9x systems, they are virtually malware and virus free. Yes nobody uses 9x systems anymore, but it's still the truth. Technically, you are safer running Windows 98, than Windows XP in todays world.

    I don't personally use Windows anymore, but it's interesting nonetheless.
