    Forgot to update everyone on the thin client DOS project. It's an HP t5740e thin client PC with 2GB of RAM and a 4GB drive. I formatted
    almost 2GB for the system boot drive and 2GB for the extended DOS partition.Originally, I installed DOS 6.22 on it, but I decided to put FreeDOS on instead. FreeDOS already has most of the drivers needed, so
    I can install stuff using the USB port.

    Sounds great! I still have a 19" 4:3 monitor I keep around in the hopes
    of setting up a DOS box. I'd love to try going back to DOS for a month
    and see how it goes.
