Heck who wants DOS? I hated that black screen with the creepy blinking cursor waiting for you to type something. And no help menu, no clue how to get about to work on it!!!

Your reply set me to thinking a bit. I started with a homebuilt MITS Altair (the plans were in a Popular Mechanics magazine in the 70s), and now have a system I can use to watch DVDs and TV programs, listen to and store music, scan print and fax documents, communicate with darned near anybody else on the planet, and play games with graphics that would have looked like something out of Star Trek to anyone 30 years ago. Any one of the computer chips in my car has more memory than my old Altair.
