Hi my name is andy Terranova and i am a student at
Williamsvile South High School, located in Williamsville,
New York. I am enrolled in a technology sequence called
Project Lead the Way and I am in the final course out of
the total five. For this class we must take any idea and
either improve upon it or expand and create new products.
My group which consists of two other students and I
decided to do a completely enclosed water cooled computer.
This computer will not have any fans and a clean dust free
enviroment within the computer case. Our plans are more
detailed and complicated but I dont want to waste your
time. We are on a very tight budget and really need an OS
to put on our test computer. We can use just about any
windows version.... 32 bit ofcourse, and would be very
greatfull to microsoft. I could not find a direct email or
way of contact to microsoft to discuss this project and or
ask them for an OS. If a Microsoft employee or
representive could please contact me via email, I would
GREATLY APPRECIATE it.
Thanks in advance
ANDY

Unless that copy of Windows 98 is not being used on a PC or as part of a
qualifying upgrade then possibly, otherwise you are advocating piracy.

Andy,

Why are you choosing a fat OS like Msft Windows? Why not choose
something more practical and economical like Embedded Linux?
