    Wrong order. What you meant was:

    Missed Me
    Went to XP
    Missed Vista
    Went to 7

    23 Floppies to load Windows 3.1.

    Oh i remember my floppy disk collection. 50+ disks kept safe for dos install and win 3.11 and then win95 disks. Oh and flight sim 95.

    Then to be on the safe side, create disk images of all my Microsoft install floppies and burned then to a singe CD (Think i still have it somewhere!) so i can recreate the floppies if any of them got corrupted or damaged...
