So this occurred to me... the furthest I went back to regarding past versions of Windows is when I ran Windows 3.11 in DOSBox-X. I haven't ran Windows 1.x (1985) or 2.x (1987) at all.

Then again, I do remember seeing something along the lines of, "Windows 3.1 was when Microsoft Windows started to be taken seriously as a GUI operating system."

So... if Windows 95 made Windows a household name, then and its GUI improvements planted the seeds for that success... right?

@djsaunders03 windows 3.1 was not an operating system, more like a desktop shell.
