Wow! This only reminds me I'm ages old too xD, as I started using shareware WC back in my college days and got my license the 1st week at my 1st job.
Youngster! When you started using it in 1989 as Norton Commander as an overlay quasi-GUI for DOS on a 286 AT computer with 4MB of RAM, then you can start posting in here about being old.
Back in the day Norton Commander + Norton Utilities were the must have tools for keeping your games collection on 5.1/4" floppy drives in good order!

Well.. I, too, did indeed start using Norton Commander from a 5 1/4" floppy drive (NO HDD yet at the time) on a 640kB 8088 Multitech PC (replacing forever the "old" PC Tools' PCShell). But remembering my beginnings wih Windows Commander under Windows 3.1 is much fancier (although less retro-vimtage).
Thanks for the heads-up. I feel much older now..

Late congratulations! It's amazing to know that a niche tool like Total Commander still exists, has a vibrant community and fills the same niche after 30 years.
