I can do yew one better. I am using Ubuntu these days. But I did use Windows for years, DOS before that, and CP/M before that!

CP/M was a killer operating system. What WordStar was able to do with overlays and just 64k was nothing short of AMAZING. If programmers now were as good as programmers then, we would not need so much memory or hard drive space.
