I learned computers by loving about in dos and loving with autoexec.bat and config.sys which is why I'll never use a command line

I remember back when I was a babby I needed more RAM for my computer game. The shop charged an extra £40 on top of the price of the RAM to install it. The shop is still around. Bastards.
