I as well. I resisted for the longest time migrating to the ‘doze environment since it was so bloated and sluggish. It seems that there are still some issues that need to be worked out to this day.

“I miss DOS”

yeah, the great thing about DOS was it couldn’t be connected to the Internet, so it was totally hackproof, not to mention it would be pointless to hack a device that couldn’t phone home.

Also, DOS was good for writing snail-mail letters and any other task whose results you could print on paper and put in a filing cabinet.
