How did people survive DOS?
Every good linux user can use their shell.
People lived through DOS but now they can’t [...]

If someone’s touting SP4 to you, they’re lying through their teeth. XP is dead. Service Pack 3 was the last nail in its coffin. There is not and never will be a Service Pack 4 for XP.
