As you likely already know Leon I like my old school software myself. Where my son has the ability to look at newer versions of programs and instantly figure out what does what I no longer have the same ability. I used to and spent over 30 years building and repairing computers and software based issues.
Bring back DOS, LOL. I was a champion with that and could do anything.
I read specialist books from cover to cover right up to Windows 98 (which I still have), big books specifically on the OS but it just kept changing too fast and I lost interest. My son however, he can program in any language and is extremely proficient at coding, all self taught after I taught him about controlling machinery with a PC with simple batch files when he was much younger. He got his first computer at 3, I got my first in my thirties but had to study programming and other related stuff while studying for an advanced diploma in electronics engineering.


That link Dennis posted may be very promising though and though I haven't had a look because I don't run that software it would be well worth you having a look.
