Where can I upload old versions of Microsoft Windows/Office so they won't be lost forever? I just bought Office XP and 2003 because I couldn't find the Dutch version anywhere on the internet.

Pic unrelated.

>tfw I have archived every Office version since Office 97 up to 2013

Nowadays with the current state of OpenOffice and LibreOffice I don't see much of a point though. Maybe that's why it's harder to find them on the web, people who liked older Office versions just moved to the open source alternatives that mostly mantained the same usability and look/feel.

Try running gentoo+libreoffice on one of these, its faster and botnet free.

I'd rather go with freedos in that case as libreoffice is slow as fuck even on a real desktop pc

Compiling it would take a long time but you get better power savings and performance after it is done along with security updates instead of a leaving your ass open winblows comp

Do consider that the thing in question has a CPU that was obsoleted by Intel's Atom line of all things.

It needs security updates you gigantic faggot. Or atleast disconnect the printer or never use anything besides the copy function with physical paper on the printer.
