@CursorKeys if you plug in a Final Cartridge 3,   the "DESKTOP" command will actually work and switch you into this

Thanks.  Yeah, I've got a FC 3 laying around somewhere.   I remember the first time I saw it, it was looking pretty sweet.  But that was years later, in my "commodore days", I had a Power Cartridge though ?   "Description of the Function keys F1,F3,F5" was the whole "GUI".



EDIT: Did a quick google on power cartridge, seems like I remembered it wrong, this was the "GUI".

I remember having an FC3 cartridge and that desktop! Wow, that bring back some memories.

I don't recall having the Power Cartridge, but that screen looks so familiar. Makes me think someone I knew may have had one, not sure.

Still, so cool to see it all again!

Nothing wrong with a classic!

Also, I stuck with Windows 7 for quite a long time before moving to 10. Skipped right over Win 8, I hated it on so many levels, but 10 I really enjoy.

As a rule of thumb, I tend to give Microsoft quite a few years to flush out a new OS. We're all aware of their "hit and miss" track record. lol

It's hard to keep a tidy desktop, at least it is for me. I end up with so many apps installed, especially with I am trying to learn something new. ?

You can never go wrong with Who!
