I did it once, for fun. Installed WFWG 3.11 in Virtual PC, with IE 5 and
Netscape 4.07. Managed to even get the sound board working. Hit a few
websites too, just to give whoever analyses the logs a WTF? moment. I
still have the virtual disk... it's really small for current standards,
just 150 Mb.

Now you did it, I HAD to run it again. Crap... VPC NAT is not working.
Will have to debug this one of these months.
