Y'all remember shareware Doom on an IBM 486DX?

Welp, my back hurts!

Second dos game I ever played was Doom on a 486. My mum was doing a tax return for the local bowls club, and the manager let me play Doom on their computer while she was going through all the paperwork.

A couple years later we got our own Pentium 133mhz and a copy of Doom and Duke 3D.
