Sorry, that was my info.  Perhaps I shouldn't trust peoples info on the debian
newsgroup as much as that.  I went to that windows site, and (probably because 
my search was too brief) I couldn't find anything about dos at all.
What I heard was that microsoft were breaking dos support to make Win 2000 more 
stable.
