I know you said this was before GIF was invented, but I do remember BBSes and interlaced GIFs, which I thought was a cool idea.

But I disagree that most shareware was good quality. There was tons of crippled and nagware software (remember NoNags?), way too many greedy people. I know software isn't cheap to develop, but it was highly frustrating to me. I once saw TDE offered as shareware (when originally it was public domain), so that was "fun"!

I am somewhat nostalgic about old tech and wish I could one day run my own BBS with retro hardware (but that will probably never happen). I think we all (now) could make it work and have fun. You know, hindsight is 20/20. Heck, I might even dual boot FreeDOS and Minix!
