Hi Brice
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! This brings back my memories to the early eighties, when I was developing software for the TeleVideo Personal Mini. Later on I have computerized a large medical laboratory by installing lots of Olivetti Personal Computers, all tied together by an early Novell NetWare server. And yes, I did develop all software on MS-DOS. I was writing a lot in x86-Assembler, mainly TSRs for controlling the medical analysis machines, attached by RS-232 and RS-422 interfaces.
Cheers,
Albert
