(and the movie thing....I wonder where you can get a computer that makes those really neat sounds as it spells words out on the screen)

Actually, there is programming software in which you can make use of the built in speakers in the hard drive. It's called QBASIC, and is a compressed, freeware version of BASIC. The Q stands for Quick.

I don't use DOS, but I have DOSbox (a DOS game emulator) and Tyrian 2000. The game is AWESOME and it has excellent graphics and music.

DOS was the first OS I had any interaction with (other than an Atari Computer which my family sold, GRR...). It was on a real old computer, even for that day (sort of mid 90s...), had almost a green screen and everything (loud machine, loud beeping, etc.)

These days, I have not much use for it, except for system operations (restoring an MBR after trying another random iteration of Linux, and eventually breaking up with it, pinging google to get internet up and running, etc.). A while back though, I had an odd addiction to a game on dosgames.com called Islewar. It was just really fun to play a computer version of RISK for some reason. Alleycat, also an amusingly fun game.
