Re: Off Topic, BUT very good information
Adequate four years ago? It has to be ancient by now. Found any interesting ruins tech?

I think my old & valiant 486DX2 is going to challenge you to a duel. I believe it's a bit old-fashioned, you know

Re: Off Topic, BUT very good information
Why did you have to say duel so my old reliable Atari 1040 STE could hear? I'll never get him back into the closet now until he's vanquished your 486DX2.

 My TRS80 from Radio Shack kicks arse over all antique systems.

Re: Off Topic, BUT very good information
Whew! good thing I didn't have my Commodore 64 on or it would start deuling my Compaq piece of junk (it is a fairly new computer but it has problems, big ones...). Then it would attack all of your computers.

Re: Off Topic, BUT very good information
I think I still have my old KayPro running CPM in my closet somewhere. (Some of you may wonder "What is CPM?" - an OS from a thousand years ago...)

Re: Off Topic, BUT very good information
Wow, I didn't mean to get everyone started on rememberances from the days of steam computing. I have stories of toggling in programs, using paper tape (punched on mylar for durability), submitting jobs with 20 boxes of punched cards only to have the operator drop them. I've got souvenirs too, like my chunk of "core" memory from an old Cyber machine. CPM is new stuff.
But I really wanted to say that Sandra is a useful utility and worth a try.
