                                 EDITORIAL
     =================================================================
     I am thankful to be writing this.  I suffered a major heart attack on
     March 31.  My doctors call it a "widowmaker"; the kind of heart attack
     that kills more than people survive.  I was one of the lucky few that
     survived.  I have no damage to my heart from the heart attack but it
     was discovered that I have left ventricle hypertrophy (a hardening of
     the left ventricle caused by high blood pressure and causing my heart
     not to pump enough blood).
     They found three blockages inside of my heart so I am expecting
     triple bypass surgery sometime this summer.  Right now, I have several
     risk factors that I am attempting to mitigate before the surgery can
     happen.  So I have to take it easy and try not to stress too much as
     another heart attack will probably kill me.
     It is a very sobering fact that I am facing this as I turn 50.  A
     heart attack is the last thing I expected but looking back, I can see
     there were warning signs that I didn't know about or expect to be
     dealing with.
     I am changing my diet and am working on getting my mouth ready for a
     full set of dentures (I have no teeth in my mouth as diabetes has
     caused them to all be removed).  I figure that heart attack was my
     final warning to get my health going on the right track.
     I am thankful that I am still able to live alone and take care of
     myself; to get around under my own power; and not to have suffered any
     major aftereffects from the heart attack.  If you are in good health,
     keep it.  I'd not want to wish what I've been through on anyone.
     This week's 'Gazette is a last-minute deal.  There is an article from
     Andrew Leary, FTSC Coordinator, that I meant to publish last week but
     it is in this week's FG.  Sorry for the lack of exciting content but
     hopefully next week will be better.  I'm dealing with a real lack of
     energy.

     Happy birthday, Windows 3.1!

     Happy birthday Windows 3.1, aka 'the one that Visual Basic kept
     crashing on'
     30-year-old software that first introduced Windows Registry and killed
     Real Mode
     Richard Speed Thu 7 Apr 2022 // 12:00 UTC
     ----------------------------------------------------------------------
     Time flies whether you're having fun or simply trying to work out
     which Registry change left your system hopelessly borked, and before
     you know it, Windows 3.1 is turning 30.
     Windows 3.1 was more than a user interface refresh of the preceding
     Windows 3.0. Arriving on April 6, 1992, and still on MS-DOS, the
     operating environment brought forth support for TrueType fonts,
     introduced the Windows Registry and dropped support for older silicon.
     Windows 3.1 insisted on 80286 or above, finally sticking a knife in
     the heart of the Real Mode that was still supported in Windows 3.0.
     As well as a visual update (although nothing compared to what was
     coming a few short years later with Windows 95) multimedia support was
     improved and Microsoft introduced a concept called The Registry.
     The Windows Registry was (and remains) a database of settings hidden
     within the environment, ostensibly intended to replace or complement
     the .INI configuration files scattered throughout the environment both
     by Windows and applications targeting the platform. It is a handy
     database, but one that has become considerably more complex in the
     intervening 30 years.
     Windows 3.1 also increased the maximum memory available: when running
     in 386 enhanced mode, the limit was a mighty 256MB, up from the weedy
     16MB of Windows 3.0 (although care needed to be take with the version
     of the HIMEM.SYS driver.
     The requirement to run in Standard or 386 Enhanced Mode also made
     things a good deal more stable, although the elephant-on-a-traffic
     cone nature of Windows perching on DOS meant there remained plenty of
     opportunities for sudden crashes.
     Windows 3.1 sold very well, with an appealing user interface and
     consumer-friendly multimedia features. It did, however, have a
     relatively short life. Networking shortcomings would be at least
     partially addressed by a quick-fire succession of Windows for
     Workgroups releases, taking the version number to 3.11 by 1993 and
     also dropping Standard Mode. Windows 95 turned up shortly after,
     FGAZ 18-09                   Page 3                   11 Apr 2022
     finally merging MS-DOS and Windows (after a fashion).
     And then there was Windows NT 3.1, released in 1993 and looking for
     all the world like Windows 3.1 on the surface, but with an entirely
     different architecture lurking underneath.
     Support for Window 3.1 ended more than 20 years ago, but its influence
     continues to be felt today, even if the stacks of floppy disks used to
     install it are long gone. (R)
