You betcha, Richard. All that stuff was. Never could afford half the stuff I saw inthe Rainbow. But I bought DynaCalc so that I could play with spreadsheets, and once I got a taste of the few shell commands in that distro, I had to have the whole system. Never looked back after that.

The GOD of Israel sent His Son Jesus,
fished me out of the sewer of life,
personally paid in blood to clean me,
took me home, and gave me His T-shirt.
That’s my story, and I’m sticking to it.
