Guest,CJB -

I remember when a "BRS" was the only way you could reboot a computer.(and you did it pretty often.)

And I recall about when I got my first computer that would reboot if you did the "Three Finger Salute" twice - which made it a lot easier.

Then Mickey came out with Windows 3.1 that they advertised as "The End of the ABEND" with what we've learned has been typical of Microsoft prophets ever since.
