I’ve been looking for this for awhile now, and I’m convinced there is no copy of it anywhere on the web.
Hence, I’m posting this as a shout out to hope that some (ex) Microsoft employee still has a copy on their hard drives.
What I’m looking for is the original Macromedia Shockwave “interactive” demo for Windows CE handheld devices.
It was originally hosted at this URL: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsce/hpc/tryit/shocked.htm
Sadly, no archive out there has a copy. Back in the day, it was much harder to archive active/plugin content from web sites – we had much cruder tools, and it was a lot more hacker-grade. Keep in mind it was a Macromedia Shockwave demo… before Adobe acquired Macromedia, and long before they made a “thinner” version for lower-end PCs, that you may know as Shockwave Flash, or Adobe Flash.
Why?
Mostly for history. It was the first interactive demo of a mobile operating system. You could use the Windows CE user interface from inside a web browser, and it is much more easy to share than boxing up a Windows CE 2.11 handheld and sending it to someone to try out.
So, if you have a copy, let me know.
I too have been looking for this for a long time.
I did used to have this on floppy disk. I think it was only about 600KB. It was relatively easy to obtain – you went to the website and it would download to your temporary internet files. If you were a geek like I was as a kid, you’d browse this folder and save any pics or midi files for use on your own homepage.
But I no longer have the floppy it was on and on occasion I think to search for it but have yet to come across it.
Do you have any news on this matter?
