I loved DOS in all it's iterations - every mini computer manufacturer

anything I wanted in DOS - I had a real affinity for it. When I was
working for a CNC manufacturer, I could interface machine code and DOS
in my sleep.

It's also a strong part of the reason I switched. I've always felt more
control and POWER using the command line. Now, of course, it isn't DOS,
but it is a command line.


I never really took to GUI, although I use it now, because I see it
as the Spawn of The Devil - namely Macs.

Macs were made for dumbasses and those who have no ability to work in
DOS because it was "too difficult". :)

There - that ought to start a fight. :)

Don't know, are there any Mac users here? By the way, the new Max OSx is
quite *nix like, I am told.
