| I may cultivate an image of myself as a flagrant architecture racist utterly against everything x86... and I am, but I do still have a soft spot for the pre-p!!! era, so checking my profile and seeing one of the funny numbers show up was a nice surprise. Now, where's that copy of Windows 3.1? I gotta get a graphics workstation set up and it's just easier with a vague semblance of multitasking, not that I don't appreciate a bit of the ol' DOS. Speaking of, I didn't realize this until just a few years ago, but at least with DOS 7.x, you can customize the prompt to look however you want. I have mine set up so that it's just the character >, but next time the PII is out, I think I'll try to get it as bashlike as possible. ____________________ ![]() |
Never owned one. I had a 286 running Windows 3.0 at best or 2.0/286. Trying to get 3.1 running on such a device just wasn't happening.
But it was my first real foray into how computers work since I was able to repartition and reformat a drive and install both DOS and Windows on it by the time I was 9 or 10.
