For those too young to remember, Gateway was once a cow-oriented company. The boxes were bespeckled like Bessie and their hottest 1994 model, back when the company was still called Gateway 2000, included these bodacious cow wallpapers on the disk. Remember: this was still Windows 3.1. Windows 98 was just a glimmer in the world’s eye.

There’s a full Flickr set over here if you want to relive the pre-dot-com boom years. One more inexplicable one after the jump.
