I'm not and I don't. In my pre-windows days I used a BASIC program that,
at a specified time, caused a warm-boot. (WARMBOOT.COM was a routine
created using DEBUG, the POKE values for which I got from a note in PC
magazine.)
Why I did this was because my BASIC program was quite an affair. I tied
together several "screen-savers" I'd written which were really quite
pretty. One was of a city skyline being bombarded by meteors, another a
city skyline under dark clouds with lightning strokes, etc. It would
randomly play these scenarios until it activated Max with a warm boot.
For a number of reasons I didn't want to go the warm boot route again or
use third party software. I was hoping there was a way of doing this via
a BATCH file, but couldn't come up with a way.
I've a 120mhz Pen. with Win95 since January - and it's already obsolete.
