it was called Windows 386. But as it wasn't wholly graphic, it's often not counted. They did have a graphic interface you could install over Win386, but it was pretty glitchy. We still mostly worked in DOS.

You ended/started your decades in the xxx5... I wasn't alive during the 1945 page, nor for the 1955 page, although I was born just a few months later in 1956. This not only gave me many good laughs and memories, but also made me feel pretty damned old! (LOL) Didn't know Whoopi and Bill Gates was a year older than me!

Thanks for the memories!
