Hello from the Netherworld...

Post by elderK »

Well, Hello there!

Yes, Im well aware that this has to be one of ze craziest messages I have ever sent on OSDev (yes, I am proud...). But... I thought it would be interesting and slightly cool.

:P So, HELLO! From the NETHERWORLD!?!!!?

What is this Netherworld you ask? A beasty Intel 486DX running at 66MHz, boasting a fancy 8MiB of RAM and a 500MiB Hard disk. WOOOOT!

But, in all seriousness this post comes to you from a slightly nicer machine, a Pentium Pro! 200MHz, 64MiB RAM, 2GiB hard drive. Although, The Cirrus GD5446 integrated video doesn't seem to play nicely with VESA, so... Im trapped in happy-go-lucky 80x25 mode! WOOHOO!

But hey man, this is what happens when my desktop's CD burner dies and I can't find any workings CDs to use except for an old FreeBSD install.

So, here goes.
:P Wish me luck.
