[[File:BedOS.jpg|thumb|200px|The BedOS 2.0 Desktop]]
The first bootleg that was created for Windows was a [[transformation pack]] called [[BedOS]], released in early 2000. This OS required an existing install of Windows 95 or Windows 98 to function, and had releases in both Russian and English. It laid the foundations for many bootleg creators, as it added a custom theme, icons, and several additional drivers and programs, as well as removing some bloat from the existing install. It was a very important OS for kicking off the Russian bootleg scene and thus the Windows bootleg scene as a whole.
Several different versions of BedOS were released, including 2.0
The name of the OS is a pun, as when romanized, the name would be "BadOS". It is also one of the very few bootlegs distributed as shareware.
