"...worked on my old Tandy 1000 in 16 colors when Windows wouldn't."

Yeah, the Tandy machines' BIOS wasn't totally PC compatible IIRC. The DEC Rainbow (and probably others) were the same way.

"i remember lview pro my first image program"

Still around surprisingly.

"I remember my DECWriter II."

DEC made great machines - I grieved the day Compaq bought them out. I imagine they're still some DECWriters, IBM Display Writers(?) and Wang dedicated WP's in service.

"Win3.0 killed off DESQView."

Ah, DESQView. I knew there was one I was forgeting.

Computers will never be quite as much fun as they were back then.
