My old sysadm reached a state of acceptance where he would no longer
frown if he saw me using DOS.
I once went up to him and asked "why don't those two machines have BIOS
passwords?"
He didn't even question me on the fact that I had attempted to access
his BIOS, he just answered my question. (And yes, I still have the
