Rogerwilco and SlowCoder, I believe I can learn a lot from you guys. Heck perhaps I am probably half your age (27) but my first computer was a 4/86 with 240 megabytes of harddrive, 4 megabytes of ram, VGA screen and then it was dos 6. something (and Windows 3.11) . But still I began reading about the old days before that. And began getting an intrest in old hardware and what not, perhaps I can´t program for shit (sorry to all the moderators that I cursed , but other than that then carry on). But I did learn a lot from reading manuals for dos (the DOS cookbook or something like that) . But still your conversation is to me something I think is awesome to read, so please continue

since to me, I hope I can bring in some joy to the mix, by learning from you guys
