An interesting visual compendium of our favorite seminal American dream Simulator from the late 20th century, relatively almost immediately after the games first official release. Notable points include the demonstration of the Sim Exchanges first days of existence, and the whole sensorial experience of seeing all of the fun being spiritually commanded by a native Windows 2000 hardware, yknow.
