Be honest, are you working there because of Court ordered community service?

Also, congrats on being one of those dudes who keeps all the good shit out back for yourself, I guess

Good, yeah, get used to using a code editing IDE, an assembler, and changing This or That to a different value just to see what happens: You'll learn alot more than you think just goofing around!

> dosbox
hah i fuckin knew it ...guess how? =)
The problem with Dosbox is that it doesn't perfectly emulate x86 instructions, and unzip / code compilation programs can rely on precise x86 tricks to speed them up. Dosbox is great for games but it can / will goof up actual software.
Better / more accurate options are starting to exist like PCem, which has a much better shot of running those programs properly. though PCem is more complicated to setup, i think it's about high time i got on that train myself.

i hear wonderful things about PCem
> quake 3
isn't that around 2000 or so? i would go with XP unless you really need the 9x family, it feels and works way better than 98, still compatible with relatively recent programs, and the networking support to your actual PC should actually work and not drive you insane lol
