Happy Birthday, BetaArchive!

Post by DiskingRound »

Another thanks and happy birthday to all this archive has offered over 12 years, and just to note, two years ago we had 20 TB or so in the archive and today we have nearly 100.
That means something, doesn't?

Happy great birthday for our massive TB increasing database! I still remember this place back in 2012 when I browsed as a guest.

Even though most of the new builds are the Windows 10 update builds, at least we found other gems like Windows 2000 build 1575, WFW 3.11 build 70 German, and lots of evidence for older builds!

Happy twelfth birthday, BetaArchive!

This site has come a long way, from the Windows Vista era, to the Win7 era, then the Win8 era and now the Windows 10 era.

Over the years, a lot more pre-release software and OSes have been examined thanks to this site.

And also, lets not forget how much terabytes of abandonware and betas we have got on here.

Thank you all for these lovely and intresting builds!

Happy Birthday, BetaArchive! By the way, sorry for that earlier post. I didn't realize that it had already been posted in another subforum.

I'm not sure that I consider 87.41 TB (79.5 TiB) to be nearly 100 TB, but I'm sure it will get there soon.

It's been fun some 11 years for me on BetaArchive, and I hope I'll have even more fun the next 11!

Happy Birthday BetaArchive, and thank you all contributors and fans for making 12 years possible!

Well I am kinda sure that about 50% of those 87TB are Windows 10 releases in several languages but still, amazing collection.
