Now, that's an interesting use for a Dos/FreeDos retro computer: https://www.theverge.com/2014/5/14/5716232/george-r-r-martin-uses-dos-wordstar-to-write
How many computers destined for the landfill still have perfectly good screens and keyboards? (Recalling those heavy, grey, indestructible PS2 keyboards where the keys snapped back up with a vigour that seemed to sent your fingers flying on to the next character) Now, I might have gone with WordPerfect 6 instead of WordStar 4, but the idea itself is solid: A computer that you just use for writing, sans distractions. No YouTube, no Email, no Facebook - you sit - you write. I mean, it's hard to argue it didn't work well for this guy!
