I was a diehard DOS-head and didn't make any move to Windows until Windows 3.11 for workgroups came out (required for my work environment at the time), but in a multi drive system, I still find that opening up a DOS window is more efficient for moving files from one drive to another,
C> xcopy/c/e/f/h *.* d:
Just one example. I'm still actually running XP w/Service Pack 3, and F-Secure for firewall and antivirus functions, and my systems are airtight. I run Firefox, always updating to the newest version, and Internet Exploder has NO place on my machines.
I do believe the Windows 3.11 version of Solitaire is best!

Still have that DOS with a souped up Win3.11 WFWG (built largely out of Win95.950B/Win98 parts) running over it on a bootable CD somewhere.
