Hi Norm,

>>If you can't innovate, RENOVATE! Slumlord Bill puts a new coat of paint over the dry-rot on the tenement and ups the rent to $109. Maybe Bondosoft Bob will be hosting "This old DOS" on MSNBC this fall.<<

That's good.

Speaking of DOS, Schulman once lamented the quick passing of DOS - the way MSFT threw it away before it had lived its useful life.

I've probably written of this before (and will again) but it sure would have been nice if they'd developed a text-based multitasker - something lean and mean for people desiring speed that would have upward file compatibilities with the gui we know and love as windows.

DOS would have been the perfect program loader for it.

FWIW
Andy
