After months of searching, I've finally acquired a copy of the ultra rare 20th Anniversary Edition of Windows XP! It was exclusive to the Japanese market, and only 9,999 copies were ever produced. So today, on the 20th anniversary of Windows XP's release to manufacturing, let's open it up and find out what makes this so unique!

For reference, the 20th Anniversary Coupon's expiration date was April 30, 2006 (Heisei 18). This was from when Japan still used their Calendar system, which correlates to the Emperor of Japan. On May 1, 2019, the Reiwa era began, and many Japanese newspapers, drivers licenses, IDs, etc switched from the Japanese system to the Gregorian system. When newspapers use two digit years, they're now referring to Gregorian years. However, the Government of Japan still adheres to the Japanese calendar system, as I read through some legal documents in 2020 and 2021.

This comment is two years old but era names and calendar systems are two separate things, and era names are still in use. Japanese government officially announced the switch from the lunisolar calendar to the current Gregorian (solar) calendar in 1872. Different calendar systems divide time differently into years and months (hence “Chinese New Year”). The era name is merely an alternative way to name years, e.g. the Common Era year 2024 is also called the year Reiwa 6, and is not called a calendar system itself. Japanese era and the C.E. have been used in conjunction. Usage of Japanese era names is slowly declining but the change is very gradual, and an official nation‐wide switch has never happened. Individual organizations may decide to change their document formats independently. Also we generally avoid writing C.E. years in two digits. Confusable not only with 19xx but also with Japanese era years, it’s doubly problematic.

Windows XP is not dead. Like any good vs bad scene, the "evil" side tries to put these goodies into their shadow, so that it creates the illusion of the thi g vetting done, when, in fact, still lives, works and is not dead

5:32 I suspect it's because US still sticks to the un-scientific 8.5" x 11" Letter as the primary size of printer paper, while most parts of the world have adopted the ISO A-size system supplemented by JIS B-size system, both with square root of 2 (~1.414) ratio. The most common size for daily office works is A4 with the area of 1 / 2^4 = 1/16 square meter (210 x 297 mm, or 8.27" x 11.69").

In the replica CD holder, the Windows Vista logo is positioned so that it will be covered up by the disc. The others have the logo to the side, so it will be displayed next to the disc. I wonder why they made that decision?
