Today we were poking around on IRC and Rasmus showed us this tarball, probably one of the last remaining copies of PHP version 1.08 in existence. Ah to be back in the day when ./configure wasn't necessary (just run 'make' from the directory and you should be all set).

Even more interesting, a google search returns ~400 results for the string 'phpl.cgi', the PHP 1.08 CGI binary... interesting enough most of them point to the home page of Phil Andrews. His Long Distances page is likely the last remaining *running* copy of PHP 1.08, and it's still going strong!

To see it in action, look at the bottom of the page :)
