== Description ==
Unlike most bootlegs which usually edit an existing Windows distribution (especially 32-bit ones), this one is a DR-DOS 7.03 based boot disk of 4 Windows CE versions which are virtualizedbooted withusing athe DOSLOADCEPC.EXE portprogram ofwhich Microsoft'sloads Devicethe Emulator,kernel whichinto isram aand stripped-downboots versionit ofdirectly Virtualon PCthe system. All of the 2007,images usedhere forare virtualizingfrom the WindowsHPC CEFactor firmwarewebsite.
 
On the first boot, you get detailed instructions on how to operate the boot disk and take advantage of its included executables along with a listing of the available Windows CE versions.
 
The four Windows CE versions are as follows:
* Windows CE 3.0 (named "HPC2000" (even though it's not Handheld PC 2000 which is an entirely different thing) on the CD)
* Windows CE 4.0 .NET (PDA) (named "WCE40PDA" on the CD)
* Windows CE 4.0 .NET (Webpad) (named "WCE40WEB" on the CD)
* Windows CE 5.0 (named "WCE50" on the CD)
 
Then, there is a disclaimer for the first version that warns the user that the aforementioned version may not display correctly as the emulated display driver doesn't support the VESA standard, even though LOADCEPC itself supports VESA, but the images themselves were made in question for Virtual PC's enhanced S3 Trio64 emulation, which included special features related to VM integration.
 
There is nothing else of note to document in this section, aside from it being the first Windows CE bootleg to ever be in the archive.
