Tech Support: "How can I help you?"
Customer: "Well, everything is working fine, but there is one program that is not."
Tech Support: "What program is it?"
Customer: "It's called 'MSDOS Prompt'."
Tech Support: "What's wrong with it?"
Customer: "Well, I click on it, a black screen shows up with NOTHING but a sign that reads: 'C:\WINDOWS>', and it just sits there and doesn't do anything. I have to turn off the system to go back to Windows."

Why do people see DOS as a completely different entity to Windows? If you try to explain to people that Windows (well, Windows 9x at least) is just DOS with some graphical stuff on top (which is basically what it is), they look at you like you're crazy. Bloody end-users, eh?

You can? Where can i find more info about this XTM emulator,is it something similar or VMware or win4lin? You can install a normal linux distro? (By normal i mean something that would fit in to 9210s storage,maybe mulinux) 😊

Every linux that runs on a XT 😉 Linux is known to be small .. try and see 😊

Now there is only one problem,how to get my fathers 9210 😊
If i do succeed in somehow fooling my father in this no good deal i will definitely try it.Runing linux on a 9210 would be the coolest 😊
