Here's my guesses - left to right, top to bottom: TRS-80, Compaq, Apple IIc, original Mac, original IBM PC, Windows 3.0

My first "desktop" computer at work was an IBM PC running DOS with dual 5-1/4 floppies.
(been using other computers since 1975.)

WINDOWS 3.0 maybe even 2.1, but a bit fancier than I remember 2.1.

This OS is Windows 3.1. That's only 25 years ago.

Pic No. 6

Windows NT 32-bit.

I've used Win 3.11, 98SE, XP, Vista, 7, 10 on my own PCs. Also NT, 95, 2000 (junk), ME, 8.1 on other's machines as well. Anyone use Windows CE?

I think you're right - similar styling, but Apple DOS never featured windowing.
