Teh Technology!!

I just finished playing through Space Quest 3. Some of you are going to have to go to your Way Back Machines to know what I'm talking about. I'd known of its' existence, and I'd even installed DOSBox Portable at some point. Just got around to using it, and it was a great trip down memory lane.

Can a game that old still be fun? Oh yes. In fact I've been perusing some of the old DOS games out there. It's been quite fun. I was lucky enough to have a powerful 386DX-40 back in 1992 or so. So I got my hands on some of the better games. Going back to revisit some of those has been a hoot. Going to look at the Commander Keen games again next. I remember playing through the different shareware versions of those many times. OH and I got a copy of Airlift - it's a riot. Spent many aggravating hours on that game I can tell you.

If you care, DOSBox can be found at www.portableapps.com. Take a look. The trip down memory lane is quite refreshing. Or, if you're too young to know what DOS was, take a look anyway. You might learn something. Get to know your roots, that sort of thing.
