A split-screen DOS Norton Commander-style file manager shows the contents of the C:\NC and C:\QUAKE directories, including old executable files and Quake game files. The joke comes from the intensely nostalgic early-computing interface and the recognizable Quake folder, which people use as a reaction to signal retro gaming, obsolete technology, or being an old-school computer user.
