Windows 8 is a natural progression in the post-literate society. We first moved from command line driven operating system shells to visual icon driven programs, where you can’t talk directly to the OS, to where, most of us being illiterate we see nothing but pitchers in Windows 8 tablet interface. progres. Give me the command line.

I miss DOS2-3 in 1986-7, the basic 9 command prompts, black screen w/ orange type, on my old IBM PS2/50. Heh. I still go to command prompt, just for grins, to keep in practice. I’m a dinosaur, too.
