So, what's up in your hood?
Work takes up alot of time, so I haven't been able to update The DOS Spirit as much as I want to. That, in addition to a rather crappy internet connection makes it even harder. Anyhow, let me update you all on what's happening here behind the scenes.
I've getting alot of reports for titles that doesn't work to download, via our shiny report utility (found on each review). The reports aren't unfounded however, there's a reason that people experience dead links.
Our file server, "Filer @ The DOS Spirit", has been down for some days due to the fact that is couldn't cope with the traffic. Well, honestly I couldn't blame it. Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition on a Pentium 233MHZ with 512MB will only get you so far, before it starts to gasp. Our file server is located on a different machine than our homepage, enabling us to change it without taking off the pleasure of reading our reviews. The file server is being changed as we speak, into a more efficient piece of hardware that'll hopefully cope with the demand of hungry retro fanatics.
As for our poll, it takes on what kind genre our next review will be. Once that is settled, the work for a new review will commence, so stay tuned for some more goodieness from the good old days we all love and adore.
