Might an upgrade help?)

Hmm, this text wouldn't have 84 lines, would it? That'd be an average of
~49 characters per line, so it's reasonable. DOS/Win uses CR/LF line
ending pairs, while the unix backend only stores LF (or is that CR?
Doesn't matter, 2 bytes vs. one byte)
Just think of it as the earliest example of Microsoft code bloat ;-)
