You forget how basic/simple software was back in the days of Windows 3, yet, how fun it could be to mess around with. In this episode, Diana tries out 3 programs for Windows 3:

Magic Eight Ball (1994):
This program simulated those magic eight balls kids had as toys in the 80s. You ask it a yes no question about the future or for a piece of advice like "Should I ask Bill Gates for a million dollars?" and it gives you a response.

HypoCycloids (1994):
A program that produces Spiro-graph-like images, a rotating line drawing around a center. Settings allow for changes in the behavior of the line drawing.

TicTactics (1990):
This is basically the game TikTacToe but with a twist. To win, you must line up three pieces in a row: horizontally, vertically, or diagonally. This is hard because you have to think in 3D and there is a LOT to focus on.
