Fun fact: #Encarta was once ported to #Macs? It was the 1994 to 1998 editions that have received native port to 68k, and later PPC #Macintosh.

@Kroc I made this thing... I finally ran 2001 through 2009. Though, there are some errors, Flash related.
did someone ask for the sum of all human knowledge pressed into a disc? (ss inspired from @Kroc)
there's something so simple yet nice with the #Encarta UIs from 1999 to 2001 (pics are from Encarta 2000)

#EndlessOS looks neat enough, sort of a modern #Encarta. If the tools are usable without having to use a tweaked distro I might snag those. Also I wanna install Encarta 9x lol.
Encarta was a joy to play with! I have the original cds (multiple) since they came with motherboards
During my nap I had a dream that an old shop I used to work for had re-opened in an attempt to ride the nostalgia wave.
It used to be called The Natural World, and it was probably the best place I ever worked. Selling crystals, telescopes, science kits, dinosaur toys. Oak colour shelving, World music playing in the background.
In the dream we were still filling the shelves, but using CRT wide screen TV's as space fillers.
Also found this. Please don’t steal my copy!
Sorry, I can’t hang out tonight. I have to go to the library so I can use the computer to find at least 3 Encarta citations for my school project.

Google a décidé de s'autodetruire au sein de la plus grosse bulle numérique du moment, celle de l' #IA.
Ou comment merdifier tout le web d'un coup ! Ya plus qu'à ressortir les DVD d'encarta pour les recherches...

I'm doing a screenshot tour of #Microsoft #Encarta to look at how the #UI evolved over time, starting with the very first version, which is _not_ the 1994 edition -- but a quirky almost un-Microsoft like package from 1993. This is so early for CD-based software that it predates the CD-ROM standard; yes, this is a High-Sierra disc! (https://www.os2museum.com/wp/looking-for-high-sierra/)
