    I had meant to add this echo earlier, but things went sideways for me for a bit.

    Hi Alan, Charles, I take it we still run DOS based systems here,

    I had one, but it gave out on me. I tend to push things and see if I
    can get things done on systems which aren't supposed to work. I end up frying something or the other.

    OK, I have two DOS machines, both 486's. I also have an XT, which is half present. Dabbled with DOS assembler after not touching it for a while, made a small VGA star scrolling demo.

    purposes?

    I don't anymore although my first BBS back in '95 was running DOS or DRDOS. I was running RA back then, it was awesome. :)

    The closest I get to running DOS these days is running DOS doors under dosemu and FeeDOS.

    Odd. That's 4 times this message appeared in Telegram now.
