Description
A demo for Windows 95 and 98 by Phosphor Crew, first shown at Coastal Compo in 1995.
Provenance
Rescued from a skip outside a former office in Willowhaven. The dye layer had begun to fail at the outer edge; the last sectors came from a second read in a different drive. Everything was recovered, with a few damaged files repaired from a second copy.
