I have recently found a new fixation: MS-DOS games. I downloaded an MS-DOS emulator called DOSBox a few days ago, and I love it. It doesn't have the full DOS command set, but it's enough to run batch files and .COM and .EXE executables. I found a cornucopia of free DOS games here.

As you probably know by now, I am a Micro$oft hater. I hate their business practices, their loathing for healthy competition, and their software, with the exception of the command line, Minesweeper, and Solitaire.

There are times in my life when I just have a flood of ideas. I've had one over the last few days. It feels like I've just got this rush of programmer hormones coursing through my body, and I feel inspired to code, and learn and read about technology, during every waking hour.
