DOS know-how is really useful. I noticed that, people who use computers nowadays, yet who haven't experienced life with DOS, tend to be the ones seeking help/assistance more than people who've experienced the command line. Which is why I bow to the UNIX/Linux peeps--for them, the command line is god.

> yeah i remember the sinclair zx-80. my bro was able to borrow one from his boss (wilson tan of tti). lingaw kaayo ni kai ang storage niya was a regular cassette tape. you had to type each program(basic) thru the membrane keyboard. hehe. do you still have it? collector's item na kaayo ni.
