    Darn, now I really feel old. I think I have been along this more
    or less the whole time...

    I just wanted to say THANK YOU to everyone in the FreeDOS
    community - past and present. Open source software is about
    people coming together to work on something, and that's you. If I
    ever meet any of you in person, I'll buy you a beer/beverage.

    When are you heading to LA? Weather is fine right now, after
    having months more feeling like Seattle around here...


Not sure the next time I'm headed to LA, but since I live in the Frozen North of Minnesota, maybe I should plan a visit during the winter. :-)

Seriously, if I'm ever in your area, and we can get together, I'm always happy to! I've met a few of you in person. Always good to put a face to the name.

Likewise... ;-)

One of my neighbors here from the canyon is from Wisconsin and offered me to take me to a trip back to his hometown (somewhere north of Green Bay), if that would happen, I think there could be time for a trip a bit further to the west.

And to be somewhat on topic, I just saw today an article on ZDNet that Microsoft is thinking of a new (open source?) release of Windows 1.0. Windows like it's 1985... :P
