@MattSpeller Couldn't have picked a better day. It is a Friday, you know. No complaints about a half day there...
Indeed none from me but my first appt wrinkled her nose - it's not going to get any better either until I get home

Put my coffee on the roof of my car to get out, it fell, boiling milk laden deliciousness went down my jeans and filled my shoe. I have a morning full of critical appointments and I'm going to smell like sour milk. Delightful. I think a half day is in order.
Here is the states you could have at least gotten a free donut, too. Free Donut Day here most places.

Heading to bed here, it is late. Good night everyone in MangoLand.

I am currently working on a GroupWise 6 email server running on Netware 6.5 running on Dr DOS

And I found out during the 2 hour call that it is still running on the same hardware that it was running on in 2007.
There is so much technological debt in this company that I am not sure how their 4 story office is still standing.

Well honestly, it would be pretty shocking if they were running Netware 6.5 on new hardware

Never thought about this, but Netware is x86. So you could be able to virtualize it. NIC drivers might be a problem, but I guess it is possible for example with a AMD PCnet legacy vNIC, depending on your hypervisor.
The last version I had my hands on was Netware 3.1 I think. Is 6.5 still using IPX?
Edit: 16 bit OS might be another problem, Qemu could help. Not sure, but isn't at least ESXi able to run DOS VMs?

Netware 6.5 SP7 actually supports not just running on Xen, but full PV on Xen! That makes it on par with Linux running PV there. That's a serious level of support! Even Windows and FreeBSD can't do that.
-
@scottalanmiller hehe, nice
-
Yeah, not so bad, really.
-
You know what to do @JaredBusch. Software is a "bit" outdated but you will be able to let it run for a few more decades

Some video games on the Steam station that we have. One daughter is baking a cake with her mom, the other is snuggled in bed playing a video game on her own.

Packing to go to Japan on business.
I'm lying, I'm just going down to the store at the bottom of my building to buy soda.

@tonyshowoff don't forget your passport
