Just stating inaccuracy[edit]

! - 1st Version of Windows to ship installed on PC's --> Wrong... The Amstrad 2000 series all shipped with 2.11 -at least a year before 3.0 was available.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Erlyrisa (talk • contribs) 16:43, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The current version of the article doesn't say that anymore, as the Marketing section is gone. – wbm1058 (talk) 16:51, 18 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

What is the purpose of the section on 'New South Whales'?[edit]

I'm not sure if something is missing from the article or if this is just misplaced from some other article; I don't see how the misspelling of New South Wales as 'New South Whales' relates to the history of Windows 3.0. ERROR618 (talk) 06:56, 12 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
