    Old habits die hard. Started on DOS many years back, typing C:/LEMMINGS.EXE into the computer early of a weekend, hoping the bios beep wouldn't wake the parents up.
    Not about to change anytime soon. Unless they have cookies on the dark side? I heard there are also initiation rites- sometimes even as severe as camping out in the New York winter snow for 36 hours before a product launch! Inhumane!

    I have had a 'right mouse' button for the 18 years I have been using my Macs. Not my fault people don't look....

    Do YOU have a PC that is 18 years old and still works just fine? No virus, no malware? I have a G4 Cube that works just as it did when it was new.

    Cut my teeth on MS-DOS. Much better off on my UNIX based Mac, thanks. Plus, if I must run some paltry Windoze program, ....Hey presto, I Can!!

    Using Parallels, I can count a few. I have a couple of older builds of MacOs, two windows versions, and Linux Unbutu. What I run, however, is OSX Sierra.

    Nice pic, inc. Is that OS9?

    OS/2. Now there's a name I haven't heard in a while.

    I was running VirtualBox as well, but scored a free copy of Parallels in a promotion. I will have to dust off VB, as it has probably had a shirtload of updates since I last looked.
