    what do you say ?

    We only need a modern version of 8086/80286/80386 using
    modern fabrication process. Then we give up fancy GUI
    and roll back to text-mode MS-DOS with english-only
    software like WordPerfect, Lotus, Harvard Graphics.
    No games, no videos, not even sound. :)

    Well... should we go that? Should the world do that?
    That's a lot of SACRIFICE!!!

    Considering that we only began to live after getting GUIs
    we shouldn't even think of giving up some.

    WordPerfect for DOS has an excellent Print Preview.

    You can see pictures in Print Preview.

    That's sufficient. :)

    Could we give up internet and
    switch back to Novell Netware?
    Well...
