Sorry I’d been working on something but it’s just not going to happen quick enough for some NYE surprise.

Some of my favorite highlights include:

• BSD on Windows: Things I wish I knew existed
• Zork for the PDP-11 / RT-11 recreated
• 32bits of disappointment, upgrading the IBM PS/2 model 60
• A wild PS3 appears!
• 64bit computing on a budget
• Building a 100% virtual SNA network on your desk!
• Hiding in plain sight: The 64bit Dec Alpha C compiler
• When 0 is greater than 1.0
• Looking back at MS-DOS 4.00M, or in the beginning before there was OS/2

With of course the totally unexpected surprise of ‘Windows 2000 64-bit for Alpha AXP‘. What a year!

Hopefully the new year is a prosperous one.
