I’ve got an old PC
I’ve got an old PC lying around unused, because it can’t boot (it had NT as its only OS, and that was damaged when a technician hooked the disk to Windows 2000 to siphon data from its hard drive to a newer machine… long story).
Anyway, this morning I bought a new CD drive (did I mention it also doesn’t have a working CD drive?), installed it, and I found myself in a bit of a quandrary – now to start the Windows 95/98 set-up without an OS to run my CD?
Windows (95, much more than NT/2000) is awful to install. It depends on DOS – there’s no easy way to make a start disk, unless you have a Windows 95 machine around.
Luckily, I did have such a machine, and I even noticed the fact after wracking my brains and reading about. And then, using a nice program from bootdisk.com, I also had a working CD driver in DOS.
I really should save that bootdisk image somewhere.
This is a cool site: maps of India. Now, if they had such collections for everywhere else… Is there a good web Atlas?

The story behind Stairway To
The story behind Stairway To Heaven. Came across this while looking for the Lyrics to Kashmir, the Led Zepplin song I’ve picked as my “soundtrack” or theme song for the Nephilim scenario.
A plan for a book about freeform roleplaying, aimed at begining and advanced gamers, to be written as a collaboration (Hebrew). I put this link up at Fogi’s suggestion.
