Hej Benny!

> not even freedos is tryed ?

Not long enough to be called 'tried'.  If I remember correctly it was run
under dosemu on a 486 running the latest slackware.  freedos came far too late
and was still 16-bit, which pretty well sealed it's fate to the realm of
'doomed'.  The only serious competition to slackware back then was freebsd.

> yes the nokie winphones was not good at all

I never saw one.  I seriously doubt I missed anything.

> all basic roms on commodore computers is not even basic portable

Something else I never had anything to do with.  I had experience with basic
but beyond the last DOS box it never stood a chance.  The first gcc compiler I
learned c on was a sparc station running solaris.  It lacked a 'linux'
terminal but given that was long before linux existed it was my only contact
with c coding.  Before that it was f77 on vax/vms that was all the rage.  Them
were the days.  :::sigh:::

Speaking of retro, I see gcc has a new cobol front end.  Weird.  Now THAT is
taking backwards compatibilty far beyond anything I've seen thus far ... or
care to see for that matter.

> 6.15.4 here

Me too except the EuroPoint has yet to catch up.  I plan on upgrading it once
I have a better handle on the latest and (hopefully) greatest linux-gnu.  I
can't say I am happy with the latest python dependency.  :::shudder:::  I am
blaming debian for this current sad state of affairs.  From day one I never
thought much of debian ... or redhat for that matter.

Progress?  I am starting to have doubts.

Het leven is goed,
Maurice
