So I need VS2015. I have a project using it on a secure server, and I need to replicate the dev environment. I do my search, I login, I get to the "Your Downloads and Product Keys". It shows me this:
"Visual Studio Community 2015 Not available 6/27/2016"
If it's not available, why prick tease me? And this is the company assuring me that all of the updates they push out are for security. Right.... then I get an ad "inclusion is innovation." Well that's useful - not.
Wow, so, I despise edge. Trying to download opera - the file gets dumped to "operasetup.exe isn't commonly downloaded..." and edge renames it to something bogus. I have to rename it to a .exe to get it to install. What drivel.

Interesting - opera has no issue finding the download.

Seems they broke something.
The download PDF option does work either, downloads a 0 byte htm.

this does not look broken, it looks by design. Edge specifically indicates "not usually downloaded". It's just so trite.

I guess on the bright side you know to stop looking in official channels.
The one they got me with awhile back was having a version of .NET shown on a prominent page as required.
It did not exist.

"official channels" - truth. It used to be I could poke around in the forums and find answers. Now the filter bots are just nasty now, and most of the canned responses leave you wondering. It's 2024, Outlook broke, and your suggestion is to check my drivers and reboot? wtf? And you want me to trust the technical info on your site while I develop applications? shudder.

Got a RC2014 system kit a while back but had problems getting it to work. The EPROM that came with the kit was programmed by the seller but for some reason, either; he sent the wrong chip or the chip he sent wasn't set up for the combination of boards I picked.
At any rate ordered some new UV EPROM's and programmed with the correct monitor program and voila have a system running CP/M 2.2.
So have been playing withe Z80 assembler, wow does that bring back memories.
The system uses a CF card as the disk system and somewhere along the line Turbo Pascal 3.0 appeared on it?
Haven't programmed in Pascal since early college days, circa 79. Surprisingly it's coming back pretty quick and am able to program some elementary stuff right off.
The hardest part is navigating in the editor, you get so used to using arrow keys to move around that I am constantly hitting the arrow keys instead of the control keys that do the actual navigation.
Anyway fun stuff and looking forward to future adventures.
If you can't find time to do it right the first time, how are you going to find time to do it again?

Great stuff? Funny how technology we "struggled" with years ago provides amusement and relief today. I have a DOS virtual machine, anyone want to run edlin?

Don't take much to amuse an old fart like me.
Like I tell my SO, it keeps me off the streets and out of trouble.

Last time I cleaned the office (well, the storehouse room I call an office) I found a copy of Turbo Pascal 5.5+ (Now with Objects!) lying around. If I find it again, would you like it?

Yes please, any old disks you find I would take.
I'll pay postage and incidentals.
Thanks

Next time I see it, I'll get in touch. If the "email me" link still works on my post - it's always been enabled - then drop me a line with your address.

No the PM link is no longer there. Haven't seen it in a while.
I've had a couple of people get ahold of me through the contact page on my site because they were not able to PM me. Hmm, wonder what happened, maybe people were abusing it?
Anyway leave me a msg on my site Contact - JaxCoder[^] and I'll get my address back to you.
Thanks Roger.
