Microsoft open-sources MS-DOS. ’80s kids dance in the streets

I can’t explain why this story has me so excited. It takes me right back to 1987, hanging out on the living room floor, futzing with floppy disks, command prompts, and the original version of the adventure game King’s Quest.

I remember you, MS-DOS. I remember your bleeps and bloops, the non-curves of your blocky typeface, your very smell. And now, I can have you for my own.
