Fake as hell. This is the real Windows 8.1 logo. Note a few key differences to what's printed on those floppies. The "Windows 8.1" text on the floppies is Arial while the real one is in Segoe UI. Notice how the 1 has a line under it, and the i's dot and the decimal point are rounder and further from their surroundings. The "window" logo is wrong too -- it's not as enough of an angle and there's too much space between the panes.

I actually understand why government agencies do this in some cases. There's a biology analyzer machine at my uni that's still connected to a computer running GEOS. It works, so no point in knockin' it.
Then again the IRS still uses mainframe computers from the 1960s because they never hired consultants to bring them into the 21st century.

Well yeah, anyone who really knows anything about computing, especially in vital applications, believes quite a bit in "if it ain't broke, don't fix it". If you've got any sense you'll always have current plans of what to replace it with if it does suddenly break, though.

One on the left is a Pentium 486 with I think 8mb of ram and I'm not sure on the hard drive size.
Other is a 386 with 1mb k board ram, a 4mb upgrade card, 40mb hard drive and a battery that actually still holds a bit of a charge. Wish I could say the same for the huge cmos battery though, which are long dead jn both.

Intel 486. Only realising now that i've always called them Pentium 486 for some reason, ever since i was a kid taking them apart with my dad. Probably something he had told me at some point.

And you can do absolutely nothing with it
I still remember the pain of splitting files up to 40MB downloaded at college to take home on floppy disks. Was the only way I could get things with PAYG dial-up at home. 1 or 2 would always fail and I'd fucking reeeeeeeee. Had about 30-40 of them in my backpack. About a year later I got a 256MB Flash drive and it was the best thing since slice bread.
