In 1966, I used a Bendix G-15, IIRC, with a rotating drum memory and lots of
tubes (12AT7s, I think) to design an antenna system. Since I was mostly a
slide rule guy at the time, I got a lot of help from a friend who was pretty
good at assembly code.
I ventured into DOS (and UNIX) after CP/M but, except to help friends, I
haven't used Windows for years. My last use of Windows for an employer was
W98SE. I confess to having a really old laptop (floppies only) with 95 on
it, but it's not in use and I suppose I ought to figure out how to put Linux
on it one of these days.
I'm sticking with Dapper LTS for the time being because I want to have a
stable OS that I don't have to "tune" as I have other things that I need to do
with the computer. I suspect that there are quite a few like me, who really
don't want to fiddle with their OS (for the time being), but who like various
aspects of Linux and, consequently, haven't used Windows for awhile.
