- acjohnson55 13y agoUmm, there's still the Wayback Machine, which is where this belongs. It's kind of ridiculous to expect Microsoft to host completely out-dated content forever.
- tobiasu 13y agoThis isn't bit rot. It's ridiculous to remove a product because it got minor media attention. They are ashamed of their own history and have no sense for public relations. Many successful companies build museums and archives, support outdated products, sponsor enthusiasts of old crap, etc. In return these companies have dedicated fan bases, enthusiast clubs and whatnot. But MS doesn't get it, because they are too concerned with their quarterly earnings and the only marketing they understand is paying an agency big bucks for pretty lies.
