    DOS

    I say the best operational sytem is DOS. Duke Operational System, never works so good but never fails completly. It is a friendly software and have only one very bad computer to run. There are no more copies to sell. Once is a very limited edition.

    Yeah, good one Duke. This brings back fond memories of many hours spent debugging autoexec.bat and config.sys files looking for the right combo of IRQs and DMA settings to get that "new" game running....... Oh the fun!

    Re: DOS

    The first computer I had was running DOS 1.25 and was really fast with 2 5.25 inch floppy disk drives. Put the DOS disk in and go upstairs and have dinner. It might be running by the time you were finished. (Sanyo MBC 555).

    RETIRED. NO JOB. NO MONEY. NO WORRIES!

    Crunched SETI Classic to the end.
