      I have a few programs that say Win95 but are actually running in DOS. You could try DOSBox. http://www.dosbox.com/comp_list.php?letter=a

      For DOS games (or even Windows 3.1 programs), just use DOSBox. For anything else, I use Parallels (on Mac).

      I use Oracle VM VirtualBox

      I found this list of (apparently) the top 5 best alternatives to VirtualBox.

    There's a rumor floating around that Atari dumped a bunch of game cartriges and hardware in a New Mexico landfill. Can any one confirm this?

      I expected them to find crap. I wasn't disappointed.

      It is true. This video by The Gaming Historian sums it up perfectly.

      First rule of landfill? Don't talk about landfill!

      Valentine's Day is one of those "stupid" holidays. If it was a real holiday, government and federal workers would get it off.

    Just got the call, my kids will have tomorrow off from school. This will make three days in a row. It's nice to have a longer Chistmas break, but with the extreme wind chill it's way to cold to enjoy the snow.

      Longer Christmas breaks mean shorter summer breaks.

      That's why we have video games.

      I don't remember getting entire days off from grade school due to cold weather. Snow, yes, but just cold...nah

    It will be so nice to actually be a productive member of society again. I start a new job in the new year. I'll be teaching at Baker College's Transportation Technology Center in Flint, MI in their Small Engine and Powersports program.

      Awesome. Will you have your students buy Craftsman or Snap-On?

    3. Fixitguy74

      Fixitguy74

      Neither. The school supplies all tools while you're there. Besides I only promote the C.H. Ina tool company. LOL!

      Harbor Freight rocks. lol. My dad taught a transmission course at a local vo-tech school. He loved it. Young people are like sponges.

    Well I survived the ice storm, but have been without power since 7:30 am Sunday. Currently sitting at a local Mcd's in order to borrow the wi fi. The power company said power should be back on some time on Friday. Merry Christmas to me.

      Sorry to hear that. At least you're not starving to death like some.

    Anybody else get this freezing rain today? It slicked up the streets over night and someone slid off and took out our mailbox. Now we're getting more of it tonight. :(

    1. Fixitguy74

      Fixitguy74

      Got a little bit of ice over night not too bad, but our county is in the strike zone for a bad ice storm tonight. 1/4-1/2 an inch of ice possible followed by gusty winds. Wish me luck on keeping power and phone/internet service.

      Is this code for getting fired?

    2. Fixitguy74

      Fixitguy74

      Nope, code for being unemployed for too long.

  20. Fixitguy74
    This sums it up for me. If I don't collect for that system I look to see if I can flip it for a few bucks.
  21. Fixitguy74

    Man, it feels like I was gone for ever playing Wii and DS games with my kids. So I was here just yesterday, but still did anybody miss me here at Atati age?
