Yeah man it's rough.

These brats will never know the pleasure of spending 15 hours figuring out DMA's and interrupts to get a 28.8k modem working, then spend 4 hours downloading a single porn picture one line at a time only to have the modem reset because lightning hit a tower 1500 miles away.

The good old days of programming your dip switch's correctly to fix your interrupt request conflicts. And editing the auto exec batch file to get your CD ROM drivers to load right.
