I never went thru that transition Steven. I never used win 31,
nor win 9x. Everything I wanted to do I could with dr-dos 6
until the webpages got loaded down with java that Arachne could
no longer handle.

I didnt all that for drdos, I needed it for Linux/netscape to
solve the surfing problem, and to have some idea what I think
most people will be using after windoz implodes.

As for DR-DOS7 vs any other, look at it from the standpoint of
anyone who wants to use dos or write code for it. Since it is no
longer under 'development', it is a fixed format that the geek
knows, that if he gets something to work, it always will. And
if the user has a failure, he knows it aint the software.

As for Turing, check out the Bagavad Gita. Book XVIII vs 61,
where Arjuna is told the divine force is 'Causing all beings
to move by the power of illusion, as if fixed on a machine.

Arjuna is also told that the Divine has created and animated
forms as a challenge. Whether the Avatar appears to be a fool
or a sage, you cannot teach it anything (it's a cosmic robot);
however, you may learn from it.
