I miss Win 95. I miss Windows 3.3

Truth be told, I miss being able to go into MS-DOS

95 was horribly unstable

Plenty of command line stuff still there with Linux. I built my first PC in 1982, ran NewDos80 on it. I later ran every version of Windows except ME and Vista. Some time in 1998 I installed my first version of Linux. It was a command line only UMSDOS version of Slackware. I actually liked it, no delays when you gave a command. Later I ran Mandrake and Redhat. Only recently trying Xubunu, it does not boot to command line but is very smooth and fast. I love XFCE GUI, have been using it since Redhat 8.0 came out.

My wife shares your lament.
