[A83] Re: Linux





    What the f*** are you talking about!  Dos sucks because it uses improper
memery arangements that are prone to crashing.  Linux can run servers off just
flopy drives.  There are all kinds of Linux on a flopy projects that let you run
very fullfeatured, internet and network capable, 3d game capable, plus linux can
read Dos's fat16, Window's fat32, and Mac's hfs formats.  This means there are
utilities that let you run windows/dos programs from Linux.
