Back in the day that would mark you as a DOS pleb rather than a member of the glorious Macintosh master race.


I thoroughly enjoyed the early days of my career/learning as a DOS pleb!


So did I, but Macintosh people looked at it from an angle of "Why would you not put spaces in file names? They're meant to be human readable, and you will click on files more than you will type them in anyway." They were right, in the end. The future was less evenly distributed in the 80s.
