Already did, repeatedly. Your silly claim that I have changed
my position on the use of the dos prompt thru this thread. You
just never managed to grasp that what I said about dinosaurs
who use the dos prompt for routine file ops on working Win9x
systems was saying absolutely nothing about the use of the
dos prompt for a clean install, when the system cant even boot
Win in safe mode, for doing a quick ping with whats installed etc.

Welp, you are either being deliberately obtuse, or your
comprehension problems are massive. Bet its the first.

Plenty are silly enough to try that even when anyone with even half
a brain should be able to realise that its completely trivial to use deja.

Some fools still try it, and you get a deafening silence from them when
you post the deja url that rubs their nose in what they have said.

We'll see on that claim you made about me changing my position on
the use of the dos prompt. Completely trivial to prove using deja that
I think the dos prompt has its place. It just doesnt happen to be for routine
file ops on working Win9x systems. The world's moved on on that.
