Windows CE 1.0 (Codename: "Pegasus" and "Alder"), is an operating system developed by Microsoft for mobile and embedded computers in real time. It is the first major release of the Windows CE series and did not support color at all.
History[]
In mid-1994, Microsoft Corporation began work on the WinPad project, the purpose of which was to create a personal digital assistant (PDA - Personal Digital Assistant). However, very soon it became obvious that the WinPad project is unlikely to pay off, since the cost of handheld computers at that time was quite high. Software developers and PC manufacturers agreed on the opinion that the time for widespread use has not yet come.
