Now that Windows 7 is being officially launched, I thought it time for us to reminisce about our favourite old operating system languages.


1) In Reality/PicK, you could type in Choo-Choo and a train would make its way across the screen.

2) In VME, if you typed in an invalid command, like CRFS then you would get back:

"CRFS" does not exist

I used to enjoy teasing the god-squad in my work by typing in god and showing them the response:

"God" does not exist


Cover me in chocolate and feed me to the lesbians

I still use the command line a lot in work every day, beats having to run up and down stairs all day
