I guess I'm a Luddite as this computer is still using 5.15.0-126-generic.
(Linux Mint 21.3). And, yet, it somehow manages to get the job done.

But is this really a Linux computer, or a DOS computer, as I often use
DOSBox-X to run WordStar 7, dBase 5 and ScriptThing for DOS — all from the
early to mid 1990s. I guess I AM a Luddite.

Have I've managed to stray off-topic?
