I hope your algorithms are doing well today.

I think you should use triple paned, double glazed windows. Vinyl is better than wood or metal.

OP didn't list hardware.

Assuming it's a Mac Pro, I would say to run CP/M on it because it has a nice Little Green Rosetta

Sup. I like computers. Are you a computer?

This.

May I suggest Windows 1.01? It'll run fast on whatever PC you have. 🤣

Windows 2.x boots faster, though.

Crap this thread reminds me that I’d promised to clean our Windows before Christmas Day - what Windows cleaner should I use?

I recommend destroying the glass and pretending they're there. Cuts down on recurring maintenance.
