I understand the negative reactions, but I think the fact that new software can emulate the old would be a good reason for young people to not start retrocomputing; it’s not a good reason for an old person with years of experience to suddenly change workflows.

That would require first figuring out how to disable the modern bells and whistles, and then learning to use the new software. Faced with having those productivity interruptions vs not, I’ll probably do the same as Martin when I’m his age.
