[comp.os.msdos.apps] MSDOS prompts

I've seen some really fancy DOS prompts. How about posting some your own
creations here? Or emailing them to me? If I get lots of of answers. I'll
make a summary of all of them.

How's this for a waste of environment space..?

   PROMPT=$E[s$E[7m$E[1;1fp$E[K $D  $T$H$H$H y IBM PC-DOS v$V y 4DOS
   v3.02b y $E[1;61fBLUES INC0RP0RATED p$E[0;1m$E[u$P$G $E[0m
                                                                   /|\
                                                                    |
     (all on one line, using 4DOS and one space after this point)--/

Or this one, which I use all the time..

   PROMPT=$E[s$E[7m$E[1;1fp$E[K $D  $T$H$H$H y $P$E[1;56fy DOS v$V y
    $E[1;70fBLUES INC p$E[0;1m$E[u[4Dos] $E[0m
  /|\
   \-(one space goes here)
