Hey, these are the same instructors that came to my job and taught us about the new .net platform we are switching to. They even pointed out the mouse in case we'd never seen one. It's good to see that there's job security in IT rap.
The background song was actually really hip. The rapping could have been better, but what can you expect from a 1991 Promo?
I love MS-DOS 5. It's solid as a rock! I have been able to crash Linux without use of any external applications. Damn thing would just freeze sometimes for no reason :/
In all 20 years I have worked with DOS (Yes I still use it) I have never been able to crash it.
Im sorry but this must be the dumbest, corniest song ever! That teenage girl singing "Friday" is a superstar compared to this! I remember when DOS 5 came out but I dont remember ever seeing this.
@bobolito You wouldn't have seen this unless you worked at Microsoft. This appears to be an internal sales department promotional video. The "freeing up 45K of memory", the UNDELETE command, the MS-DOS Shell, and high compatibility with Windows were all selling points of the OS. The "teacher" even mentions that this'll be the first time DOS is being sold as a retail upgrade, and mentions how a customer base of 60 million people will mean big sales for the two stooges he's singing to, LOL.
@silenteyesspy the only reason why apple attracts so many people is because the shit they sell is shiny but if it breaks how do you fix it lets drive 2 hours out of our way and stand around at the apple store for 3 hours even though we had an appointment with the O so called genius that couldnt fix the computer and had to ship it out Benjie China to get it fixed
The great thing about DOS is it never crashed. At 3:40 I think this was a preminition to how people would react to their computers once installing Windows 95.
umm... i was alive during this time, and had a many o version of DOS from MS and IBM and even other sources and um... yeah, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL JUST EFFING HAPPENED WITH THE LAST FIVE MINUTES OF MY LIFE! KILL ME NOW! AHHHHHHHHHHHH
Yeah I do miss MS-DOS, Its really to bad windows went with making internet explorer as the OS, I think you could really start to see it around 98 but I think 95/98 went well with me after that I would just love to have the old school shell/program with a lot of the memory upgrades and adjustments that has happened after all these years
This is the kind of spoofing I like! I've never been fond of computer software, anyway, because that's where so many of the technical problems reside. The hardware is great. Please don't misconstrue this. The HARDWARE is marvelous. It's the SOFTWARE that is so often bad to a computer user.
