Are you an old style AutoCAD user? Miss this dialog box?

I like the dialog box because I mostly use different templates in my drawings. First time I started AutoCAD, it always create a new file. It’s useless. Not to mention sometimes a freshman just draw without knowing what are the units, scale list, and other related settings. Using this dialog box is safer. 
You can set this dialog box to open everytime you start AutoCAD, just like the old days!
Just type STARTUP [enter] then type 1 as new value then [enter].
