    Dos 4.01 was a great improvement, I refused to use windows for the longest time. Actually, Dos still kills shit. Dos with Xtree Gold and Desqview was the shit when running a bbs...

    Looking at computer screens or television never really hurt my eyes but I can remember being younger and that shit was fucked, I remember my eyes would get sore looking at that.

    Fdisk was very good to me for many many years.

    I still use it once in a blue moon!

    I ran a board with WWIV. I had it jacked up to get newsgroup packets from usenet so people could read and post to it. I had a backdoor in the games section to a second BBS for the 3lite folks. Didn't mess with warez too much, a guy at my college got busted by the fedz. Just tried to keep a fresh supply of Kathy Ireland and Cindy Crawford swimsuit pics on hand.

    Used to hang with Swamp Ratte from cDc but to me he was just K____. Really big in to hip-hop, funk, and vinyl too. It was a great scene (Lubbock) then, the geeks would get together once a month at Hi-D-Ho and talk shop. We always thought the fedz were out to get us... and it turns out they were.

    I love DOS. I wish I could go back. I have tried a few times but I can't remember what I need to know to make it really work. You know "LOAD HIGH EMM 386" and all that stuff that used to be easy before Windows came along and made it all 'easy' and slow as hell.

    When I moved to Austin in like 96 these geeks/my neighbors/friends called me Lubbock 3.1 because I still had my first 486 system from 91 and I still had windows 3.1/DOS on it because Lubbock will keep you too poor to upgrade.

    I still prefer this search

    dir *.txt /s

    Anyone have HOTDIR? Made your DIRs come out in columns in different colors according to what they were? .EXEs where a bright light blue.

    I remember changing the oder that drivers loaded to try to squeeze every last bit of memory out of that 4 Mb. Ha.

    This shit is classic.
