I've run across that site more than once in the past....so it's clearly of interest....this time I noticed links to useful downloads as well....

Cool blast from the past. 
I had Windows 2.....got it from Bill Gates off Compuserve.
Norton Desktop for Windows....made Win3.1 bearable.
NT 3.51 my all time favorite until XP came out. (Not made to be idiot proof)
RISCOS, always thought that was by Sun Microsystems but it says Pace???

I have an old P166 that I was about to toss....instead I'll fire it up with OS2 [got the box, 20 or so floppies and the books]...
Also....refired my enthusiasm to get that Apple 2c running.....see if it can do more than just be a bookend...

I've always been tempted to take one of my retiring P4s and see if I can get MSDOS 6.22 to run. I'd imagine it would scream if it could use the features that came in after it was obsolete.

Dos isn't going to be able to do much with oodles of Ram, not without outside help...
I remember trying Space Invaders on a P100....way back....click start game over.
Useless...
