Yesterday I noticed a license plate with the letters PIF, and that got me thinking about Program Information Files, which were used in Windows 3 and 3.1 to hold information about DOS mode programs. You could specify the video mode or any command-line arguments. I remember reading that they originated in OS/2 and were carried over to Windows.

I will never, ever use any of this information ever again. Why does it come to mind so readily when I cannot remember for the life of me the names of my daughter’s friends and their parents?!

Oh geez, I'd forgotten about Hot Dog Stand in #Windows31. I guess there are only so many color schemes you can create with 16 colors before things get garish.

Any Windows for Workgroups 3.11 experts in the audience?

If my network cable is unplugged I get "EMM386 has detected error #06 in an application at memory address 00B8:1460" and Windows won't start. Ethernet card is a Realtek NE2000-type PnP ISA card.

Anyone know of a fix? Other than keeping a second system.ini with networking turned off?
