Bob Pony OS Beta 2 is a bootleg Windows 7 SP1 edition, which was created by Bob Pony. It released on August 5, 2016, after Bob Pony OS Beta 1. It is based on Windows 7, as opposed to its predecessor being based on Windows XP. It was added to the archive sometime in December 2021.
This was the final version of Bob Pony OS. There were rumors that a "Beta 3" was created at some point (but never actually released), however, it was confirmed by Bob Pony that Beta 3 never existed.[1]
