User Feedback :: Why I have a technophilic relationship with dsl

Thanks Woffy for all the encourgment and Grim and Mikshaw for the links. I bookmarked all the links and will start digesting all this info.
I have DSL on a Pentium 133 laptop with 96 megs of ram, it runs great!
So that is where I will practice. Thanks again guys. BTW, Woofy, # 1 looks to be right up my alley, for now.

I only wish I had 96Megs ram...

Kids complain about the lagginess when playing games...but they still love it...

They want to play the simple games of DSL more than they want to play Halo or Counterstrike, or even Call of Duty or whatnot on more powerful machines!! (good for daddy since I get more puter time hehe)

Glad my insane ravings were of assistance Caulktel - of course you may have gathered I was also trying to motivate myself :;):

That sed link appears to do it all Grim. It does appear that only a masochist or someone with very good reasons would want to do anything with sed that was not already dished up ready-to-use in one of those one liners. Perl will have to wait in line for me though until I've achieved some superficial understanding of Python. I do get the impression bash is something you just keep picking up as you try more complex scripts and look things up as you need them.

Hey Awpuch - yeah I've seen at least one kid in the local internet cafe playing Flash versions of ancient games like Space Invaders (which I never liked much the first time around, but then I'm not a big gamer). And a 19 yo friend of mine actively downloads, collects & runs these archeological relics on his 64-bit pc! Some kind of retro thing ...
