Copies of Windows
So I'm going to set up a nostalgia theme here. I want to buy an actual copy of each version of Windows my Dell Insprion 530 was capable of running
Windows XP (debut OS)
Vista
7
8/8.1
10
Windows 11 (limited?)
I know that Windows 10 and 11 did not ever get released on a disc.
No Events found!

Windows 10 depending on version did come on disc too. I have official earlier version Win 10 disc from Dell. Win 11 not sure.

The only way to purchase anything older than Windows 10 is on an auction site such as EBay -- these OSes are obsolete and no longer available.
Even Windows 10 is in limited distribution now.

for the older Windows you can download official disc image uploaded to archive.org and burn a disc
