I don't think one more user report is going to be the difference that pushes them over the finish line after two decades. Let's not pretend the developers have been taking this bug seriously.

For starters, put a lot more effort into reproducing it.

No, it absolutely does not.

Otherwise you’ll be assaulted by roving gangs. Or young people who will mock you for wearing your trousers too high.

Thanks, I appreciate the info. I saw some photography and reporting of the protests the summer before the war (in Tel Aviv, I guess) that honestly looked a little worrying. In my memory, they were relying on the military to keep order. Of c

A cursory look at Byte Magazine from September of 1987: a 233MB Priam hard drive for $2888 dollars. That's with a crappy RLL interface rather than SCSI. If you think about a lab full of computers doing relatively simple Unix work, and
