I have never tried to install and use DOS on any post-486 PC.  Is it
still possible these days to use plain DOS and djgpp (no Windoze)
on today's PCs?  IOW, could I buy a notebook PC, eradicate the M$
infestation, install DOS 5 + djgpp and be happy?  Or is working
through a Windoze DOS box the only option these days?

TIA/jtw
