Microsoft Windows is a group of operating systems (Windows 3.1/95/98/2000/CE/Me/NT/XP) for personal computers. Windows presents a graphical user interface (GUI), multitasking, virtual memory management, and support for various peripheral devices.

Editors

An editor program allows the user to create and modify simple text files. This is as opposed to a word processor program which usually allows formatting, fonts, italics, and other stylistic devices intended to look better when printed out - an editor is simply designed to edit text. Because of this, editors are often used to write computer programs, configuration files, web pages, and other technical files that are read by other computer programs, not only by people.

Graphics

Only shareware should be submitted here; freeware, demos, and retail software should be submitted to other appropriate categories.

Windows NT is a 32-bit operating system that is more advanced than Windows 95/98 and runs on a variety of hardware platforms, and supports preemptive multitasking. There are two versions of Windows NT, "Windows NT Server", designed to act as a server in networks, and "Windows NT Workstation" for stand-alone or client workstations.

Personal Information Managers

Personal Information Managers (PIMs) and reminders are software that allow you to manage information and setup reminders or alarms.

The main difference between reminders and PIMs is that reminders will only remind you of an event, usually via an audible alarm or a pop-up window, where as PIMs include additional features that allows you to maintain contact information and manager your schedule. Some PIMs will even dial telephone numbers and send email to contacts stored within the PIM upon demand.

Utilities

Utility software for the Windows 9x PC (of course, most of them will also run on Win NT). The utility category itself is subdivided into different categories.
