  What about the NEWER "good" stuff?

  It seems that Bill Gates has the world convinced that PeeCees are
the only computers that are currently produced, and that everything
else is discontinued. It's gotten to the point where, on current (or
relatively recent) hardware, the questions I hear from people speak of
them in the past tense..."what os DID they run?" or "what WAS their
list price?"...even for machines whihch are being sold brand-new
today, but just aren't crappy "more MEGAHURTS!" Intel toys.
