Looks good, but Windows 98 has security issues Microsoft no longer updates Windows 98.

Just don't connect it to the internet. It's good for gaming and a distraction-free writing environment. It helps that it's DOS compatible. I have w98 in a virtual machine although it just isn't the same. I have some old laptops I could install it on however.

I don't have the room for a spare PC. I have an old iMac G3, a Windows 7 Dell, and a custom Windows 10 PC that are in my basement.

I don't see the draw of installing Win98 on a modern computer, other than novelty. Windows 95 and 98 crashed, a lot. Blue screens of death were a regular occurrence. Now as a retro gaming machine on older hardware, sure.

I mean, you can use it to game on new hardware, right? That saves physical space if it becomes a secondary OS.
