Old stuff I still know
Our Ginger Fuhrer says that he could still code up a simple game idea in Amstrad Basic, while I'm your man if you ever need to rebuild the suspension on an Austin Allegro (1750 Equipe version). This stuff doesn't leave your mind - tell us about obsolete talents you still have.

WORM on the RM Nimbus
Working in DOS on the old RM Nimbus I got so good at playing "WORM" that I could fill the entire screen with the tail until you ended up having to eat the tail. I could do this repeatedly for hours clocking up a score so high that it eventually exceeded the programmers maximum theorhetical score (8 digits) and would cause a fatal error thus crashing the OS.
As leet skills go, DOS based game playing isn't really up there on my CV.
