It's not my first language, either. And how do you learn? By knowing when you made a mistake and working on it. So now he knows he made a mistake. And can therefore work on it.

10 mb is huge for that time. The OS would have been like, what, 800 kilobytes? So after formatting and stuff, I'd figure you had 9.5 megs free.
Install DOS to hardrive, you have crazy fast boot times (probably 15 seconds instead of a minute), and still like 8.8 megabytes for all your text files.
I started computing in 1995ish with a 300ish meg hardrive (I think 320). It was reasonably sized until like 1999.

I used words like that as a kid. People don't appreciate it. They say things like "talk normal" or "what are you, an alien?!" or "look at dictionary over here. 'Generic'? Who the hell says that?"

Nope. You lose space because of the file structure. The hard drive has to have a way to make like a table of contents, so to speak, and that info takes up space.

"Battery can last 6 to 12 hours on a single charge!"
"Oh wow, so about three hours? That's actually pretty good."
Though back then they'd have said 1.5 to 2 hours, so probably 45 minutes - enough time for a lunch break or subway ride.

I've always said that vampires are a subset of zombie, but no one ever agrees.
Zombies: (usually) former humans that came back to life and can cause their victims to turn into them. Usually craves fresh meat. Almost always human, but some will eat anything with meat. Zombies can be caused by either disease naturally, or by magic (voodoo) or supernatural stuff (I mean, magic is supernatural, but I mean stuff like lich or demons doing it... I think that might be different than magic? I think that force is not the same as magic).
Vampires: former humans that came back to life because they were bitten by a vampire that can also turn people into vampires by biting them. Usually craves fresh blood. Almost always human, but some will make do with like cow blood, I think. Vampires can be caused almost always only by another vampire. But I think infected blood mixing can transform you?
There are differences between the average vampire and zombie:
Vampires are generally smart (sometimes smarter than humans), can talk, can fly, love sex, dress well, and are often very old. Most are affected by sunlight and religions, and some transform.
Zombies in general are shamblers, rabid, don't have urges other than hunger, and don't care about fashion at all, and tend to be falling apart.
That said - there is no hard rule that zombies HAVE to be dumb, etc. Just that they have to die and come back to life - as vampires do. So my rule is not all zombies are vampires, but all vampires are zombies ("real vampires", not people like the countess that bathes in virgin blood).

Thanks. Just spent like two hours reading it on my phone. I got a little lost because I guess I wasn't paying full attention (I can't remember who the bald guy was, for example), but still neat.
