I'm just trying to get an idea of the information in this book versus other
DOS references.  With all those other sources on DOS, why would I need this
book?  What's covered in this book that's not in other sources?  Do you
happen to know?  Is it too much stuff to list?  Or, is it just a few things
like how to use the SDA or network redirector functions?  Those two
situations are where I usually see the book mentioned.  I mean, I'm sure
bits and pieces of the information and maybe much more of the book's
originally unique content, made it into or are available from other
documents, like RBIL or IBM's PC IBM's PC DOS 7 Technical Update.  I'm sure
some info. is probably available from the open source versions of
OpenDOS/DR-DOS too.
