MS-Two?

With this sinus thing going on, I'll be doing a lot of web surfing. My first find for a good time filler is Computer Stupidities, a collection of tech support and sales experiences with people who don't quite get it.

One of my favorites:
While in art school, where we mostly worked with Amigas and Macs, a Spanish exchange student asked me if I ever worked with MS-2. I thought he meant OS/2 but he didn't know what that was. It took me some time to figure out that he meant MS-DOS. "Dos" in Spanish means "two."
