DOS isn't Windows. Consumer versions of Windows happened to run on top of DOS until XP was released in 2001.

Maybe I should rephrase: the OS you matured with is the best OS.

Half the programs I needed to use in Windows 3.1, and 3.11 required a DOS prompt to run. It wasn't until NT that almost all software caught up enough to not need that DOS prompt so much. Although AutoCAD R9 ran like crap in NT on the 386 with math co-processor. So I needed to reboot into DOS every time I needed CAD.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
