    I liked AmigaOS (kickstart). I always thought those Guru Meditations gave a special flavour to computing....

        on the Atari ST it was cool, on the Amstrad 1640 it sucked.

              Funny timing.
              I was cleaning out a closet on Sunday and finally threw out my DOS 3.3 Diskettes.

                      dos (cant remeber which versions) -> windows 3.1 ->win95 -> Win95 osr2 (or win 97 as they liked to call it here) ->WinNT4(first tried it on a P100 w/16MBram -> on a later machine WinNT4 dualboot w/Win98 and then 98se.. did ME for 2weeks... -> win2K -> win XP

                      on my have fun drive did BEOS 3 to 5 sadly Be is gone.... alas if it only got the attention it realy deserved... that OS was supurb... too bad MS or apple did not do what probably would have been best thing in the computing industry.... licence BEOS and make it a comon OS between the two platforms.... and dumped MacOs and Windows NTX/9X/ME/2K/XP .... BEOS was and could have been superior to all other OSes...

                      Mac... dont remeber which version i started on... do remeber version 7 somwhere along the line... 9... Mac OSX (but only on other peoples PCs ... those who dont know what it is that they actualy have...

                      i cant realy remeber what it was that i did on the pre X86 PCs... do remeber the atari and amstrads.... remeber as early back as when i had a computer with one of those Magnetic Tape program loders..... used to put the volume up on those just for fun...

                      i think i may have tried a version of linux once on one of my test drives but i cant remeber which... otherwise i have stayed clear from linux...

                              olivetti's are even worse

                              Packard Bell don't even play in the same ballpark compared to olivetti, when it comes to "worthless computers"
