In a message on 07-28-18 Robert Wolfe said to Holger Granholm:

Hi Robert,

RW> Actually, I use multiple _8TB_ disks daily here at home, but not for
RW> BBS use. So, what is a "normal" human by definition?

That is of course an individual definition.

I am running a BBS under old Warp 4 on one machine and have Win 10pro
installed on a laptop as well as on a stationary PC.

My use of Windows is quite limited to the extent that it feels awkward.

 HG> You don't have to tell me that. Only single core CPU's and small
 HG> partitions are accepted at install.

RW> From my experiences, that is not the case with eCS and ArcaOS.

Oh no of course not. I was referring tomy many tries to implement OS/2
on newer machinery than the above mentioned.

 HG> I have been told that the new versions such as Arca-OS and eComOS
 HG> can be installed on modern machines.

RW> True, but with varying degrees of success, but it's still best to
RW> run both under a VM if you need your main OS to be Windows or Linux
RW> based.

Linux isn't even on the horizon anymore and I try to avoid Windows.


Have a nice day,

Holger
