I am sending this E-Mail from Netscape 3.04 on Windows 95, because
it was still running when I woke up, and i'm too lazy to shut it down
and boot my DOS computer. I use -all- my systems according to my needs.
And even though I have Windows 95 and linux, DOS is still running
for most of the time. This has nothing to do with "I cant get over it".
It has to do with the fact that when I want to get something done
quickly, DOS is the answer in over 70% of the cases. My system
and the way I use it is a hybrid. Windows isnt good for everything.
So is DOS. My solution - use them all.
Using only one system and claiming that it is the 'only way', although
being encouraged by most companies, is not something I concider to be
usefull.
(and I got mIRC 16-bit because it can also run on Win3.x and on most
of the Windows emulators. You can never know when you'll need this
ability...)
