In a message on Thursday 11-01-16 Roger Nelson said to Holger Granholm:

Hejsan = Howdy Roger,

RN> No, I'm on US Fall (Central Daylight Time).  We return to Central
RN> Standard Time this coming Sunday.  I wish it would stay that way all

Yeah, I agree. We changed back to normal time (UTC+2) oct. 30th.
People here call it wintertime, which is stupid. Calling the DST
summertime may be ok, but it's a total waste of time and energy.

Farmers cannot change the time for the cows that have to be milked, same
time every morning, irrespective of what the hour hand on the clock says

Lately my body has accepted the time change very well, but even three
years ago it a week before my body had adapted the change.

RN> Simple enough to find out.  Click Start > Settings > System > scroll
RN> down the left pane to About and click on it.

I'll have to startup the laptop again to study that "left pane" I got,
after the upgrade to 1607, I told you about yesterday.

 HG> IIRC the machine the GS had, was the Amiga 500. I may be wrong
 HG> however. 

RN> I believe that's the one we had demo'd.  The RAM could be upgraded
RN> to 9 MB, I think.  One could still buy ne of those on Ebay.

I didn't have the proper manual to read about all it's capabilities, but
as I recall having seen in the AmigaDos manual, it seemed to be very
similar to Unix, (that we call Linux), with commands like mount etc, for
adding capabilities.


Have a good night,

Holger
