"abandonware", never heard that one before.
Nothing like playing oldschool 3d shoot-em-up games. Oh how many hours I've spent playing Doom and Doom 2. |

we were lucky enough to have 75 min periods (4 of them) at school, and i was lucky enough to have 2 of them be computer classes and be in the computer lab during the lunch periods... so getting a couple hundred frags/period on quake on the school network was fun fun fun... i had all kinds of stuff installed on the computers... like NESticle for playing nes games on the network, and GTA (the first one).... wish i was still in school just so i could play them games against all my computer geek freinds again... i guess i should shut up now... muhaha _________________ Laugh if you want to, really is kinda funny, 'cause the world is a car and you're the crash test dummy. |

I would play Unreal Tournament all the time in college. I remember some of my class mates would play Punchout on Nesticle. I think one of them finally made it up to Mike Tyson but could never beat him.
The network in my highschool probaly would have crashed if we tried to play games over it. I graduated in 2000 and all of the computers in the lab were still running 3.1. The next year, instead of using the extra money to upgrade the computers from out of the stoneage, or buy new text books, they installed security cameras outside of the lavs to catch smokers coming out.
I guess they finally joined the 21st century and have XP now. |

i was in the class of 2000 also, but we had Novell Netware on all the computers, which made doing everything you were not supposed to very very easy... also, they gave us programming classes and expected us NOT to make programs that would either flood the system with a million of them popup messages or shutdown the computer as soon as a use logged into the novell.... PENO (our sys admin)... oh (public enemy number one as we knew him) would come get me out of class to help them fix problems... spend one period causing probs, spend english class fixing them... nice way to get outta class
speaking of unreal tourney, i think im gonna go try to dig that cd out.... i still have some badass screenshots of some stuff on there.... not as cool as the Counterstrike ones, but alot bloodier! _________________ Laugh if you want to, really is kinda funny, 'cause the world is a car and you're the crash test dummy. |

Good ole' Novell. People still get certified for that too.
I went into one of the banks in Clearfield the other week to deposit some money and was quite surprised to see them still running NT. It seemed like a few years back, every company out there was scrambling to upgrade to 2000. NT was way more admin friendly. You installed it, chose if you wanted to use static of dynamic IPs and you were good to go.
I still get a chuckle when I go into certain businesses and see them using some old DOS database program written in BASIC. But I guess whatever piece of software gets the job done. It just makes me nostalgic for 286's and DOS. |

The year I graduated highschool ('93), we were running DOS in business classes and our English classroom was set up with a Macintosh network of almost 30 computers. Weird, huh? _________________ The liver is evil....It needs punished.

Hehe, i used to install Novell networks for DSI, in fact i have a server here running 4.11. Its for sale. A little pricey though, $5 bucks!
I loved when the Novell client would destroy a win95 paths....
The server at Blair county prison is running 4.11 on duel 400 p 2's.
Had to work on that alot, POS! |

The first computer I was priviledged enough to actually touch was at Huntingdon Middle School in about 1975... it was roughly the size of a Volkswagen and used punchcards... no wonder I didn't use another comp till 1994 or so, when I bought an old Commodore 64 for WAAYYYY too much. I paid $125 and sold it a year later for $10 at a yard sale. Then I moved on up so I could get online, blazing along on a 100mHz Pentium! That one got a huge amount of use... downloading porn and playing Doom, Duke, Blood, and that one with Lo Wang... Shadowlord, I think?------------>JMS |
