PlaceholderOS is a bootleg Examplenix Update Pack 1 edition, which was created by nft_ptr (also known as John Doe). It released on January 1, 1900, and was added to the archive on January 1, 2025.

Examplenix has some other unique bootlegs as well, such as "FPO 32-bit Edition".

Description

The OS is a modified Examplenix Update Pack 1 ISO. It adds some new programs and wallpapers. It comes with 293581 new wallpapers, 42 fonts, 3000 new cursors, and a portable coffee machine with void* flavor and time machine which can go both ways back a trillion years attached to it, but remains mostly stock from Examplenix.

One of the most interesting features of this bootleg is that it comes with a tin can and a string to easily communicate between 2 different continents.
