Technology

Back in 1993, for those who weren&t around, Windows still ran on top of DOS.

At the time, this pilot fish is a consultant, installing a new laser printer for a customer.

But the Windows 3.1 computer won&t install all the drivers from the floppy.

(Kids, you might want to check Wikipedia on that one, too.)So fish gets on his CompuServ account (yeah, this Tank is a regular time machine), finds the driver is available, and downloads it.

But the driver won&t load because it is finding remnants of the old driver in the Windows/drivers folder.Fish then does a dir aa*.* (where &aa& is the prefix of the drivers) and gets a listing.

He does a cursory scan to be sure there isn&t anything else in the list that would cause a problem if deleted — and promptly enters del *.* instead of del aa*.*.
