Well, Crystal is awesome. I know I already said that, but it bears repeating.

Well, I can't respect people who equate old to bad or primitive to bad. I enjoy the glory games of Apogee: Keen, Duke, Cosmo. I enjoy Number Munchers. Heck, the original Tetris! For that matter, I have a port of the original Mario Brothers. One screen, turtles and crabs and icebergs popping out of pipes, no story whatsoever, just play until you're out of lives.

This compatability thing leads into another pet peeve of mine. This whole XP-can't-do-DOS thing. Why hasn't Microsoft built in some form of DOSBox into all of their operating systems by now? Do they honestly think that no one knows how to use DOS anymore?
