The Vista time machine

Frank Schrader tells Andrew Tobias:

I installed the beta of Windows Vista [Microsoft’s new operating system] and one of the first things I tried was Managing Your Money DOS Version 12. It works just fine, which is great because I’m not ready to give it up yet. It still does everything I want it to and I have records dating back to 1987!

I used to use MYM DOS back in the late 1980s and early 1990s. It’s startling to think that a program that’s nearly 20 years old actually runs under Windows Vista.

  1. I also used MYM DOS a decade or two ago. Maybe it’s time to switch back. I tried to install Microsoft Money 2006 on one of my Vista machines, and the setup program gave up right away!

  2. Speaking of Microsoft Money 2006, it isn’t compatible with Windows Smartphone 2005. This is outrageous.
