re: #304 engineer dog

was windows 3.11 superior to anything?

i vividly remember the poor memory layout of win 3.1, where system memory that managed the GUI was apparently butt up against allocations for pgm memory. working in ‘C’, all you had to do was overwrite outside of legal memory for a few bytes and pretty soon the system would be putting up funky ass semi transparent displays

It was superior to everything for untrained / new staff. That was the difference. They could see what to do. No more digging through limited mobility menus. That was my experience at work.
