First system was Osborne 1 CP/M.  Dragged into PC-DOS.  Windows was a forced marriage.  Greatly enjoying Maya/MATE.

"Excellent range of basis sets, quite stable on my systems, and more than adequate for undergraduate introduction to computational chemistry (I'll provide coursepack guides on usage because the docs are indeed terse). Great for an experimentalist with occasional need for computational tools."
