Never saw this at the time......  I am amazed I ever managed to find my way around after Win 3.1 without this helpful video LOL 

 

Weezer video from W95 for more nostalgia

 

 

And the other -

 

 

My mate was impressed since he P1 133MHz wasn't powerful enough to decode the video while my muscular 200MHz MMX with a mighty 32Mb ram had no such trouble.

Ah, the Buddy Holly video... My trusty IBM 486 just managed to stutter through it...

I got a copy of Theme Hospital with my first PC. Got a download of it from EA last month for nowt. Still quite good.

Never saw any of those videos back then - wonder how much they actually knew and how much was simply following the script?

Blast from the past it was! There were a few other hidden gems on the disc/floppies if memory serves.
