I like to boot up old operating systems for UI design inspiration. Software really felt different back then. This sort of “pointless” project saves me a lot of hassle!

Is it that hard to do directly using QEMU? https://wiki.qemu.org/Windows2000

I think thats basically all this is.. qemu inside a container?

Yes, and just this time for windows 2k, an OS can bring some nostalgia for certain folks.

No it’s not that hard. But this lets me do it with a single command. No need to track down a disk image with a working key, configure the VM, and then run the slow installer. With this I can go do whatever silly thing I wanted to do that much faster.
