Few people from 2024 understand what I do, so no.

    Exceed is still the only program that handles graphically intense Unix X11 sessions properly for Windows machines. It's still not great though.

    Some of us still have to slog through old CAD applications that have long been abandoned.

    I'm thinking of the episode of That '70s Show where Kelso's dad is trying to explain to Kelso what he does for a homework assignment.

    Kelso: "OK, let's get started. Question number one, what's your job?"

    John: "I'm a senior executive statistical analysis technician."

    Kelso: "You're a senior execuโ€ฆ what?"

    John: "Well, in plain English, I concatenate the verse statistical information to maximize the potential utilization of data."

    Kelso: "So you give people data!"

    ( Kelso is on the verge of writing it down. )

    John: "A lot of people think that. No. My job's not about output, it's about throughput."

    Kelso: "So you throughput data!"

    John: "Well, now you've lost me, son. Oh, listen Michael, you know the eight tracks you love so much?"

    Kelso: "You make them!"

    John: "No, but because of us, other people who make them are able to make them better."

    Kelso: "So, you fix stuff!"

    John: "You could say that..."

    ( Kelso starts writing. )

    John: "But I wouldn't."

    ( Kelso erases it with frustration. )

    And then it keeps going on the like for a while.
