[nos-bbs] Early note on RedHat FC-5

[George (Skip) VerDuin]

Tee hee hee Barry,

It may be worth what it cost you... $0

On another thread, I did a minor agony over the NOS on Windows note - I
misspoke.
It was certainly because I had not researched the issue carefully due to
my personal prejudges.
Microsoft has integrated backward compatibility at some level in all
their Windows offerings.  In the W-95 / W-98 days, I and a lot of my
peers had really bad experiences with DOS on WIN so eons ago I made up
my mind that if software was not released for the environment it was run
in it did not get much attention from me.  That opinion has survived /
until now...

I'm delighted to hear nos is well enough behaved, and perhaps XP is
mature enough, that nos will run on top of Win.  OK, so a couple special
things are added, so there are a few shortcomings, and Jay pokes fun,
but at least it seems like a good beginners test bed.  Thanks to this
reflector and it's participants.

Thanks for the correction...
