I don't think there's something principally new to be done about DOS, at least as I see it. My system currently runs on top of DOS and is not bound to any specific vendor or version. It takes like 200 K of memory and doesn't impose further system requirements. The most significant difference probably is that I'm still flexible. I'm not sure by now that I want to develop a whole DOS package. I can customize a multitasking solution to a legacy DOS-based system or custom DOS-based embedded system rather than pull you to use something given and unchangeable. -- http://bphantom.tripod.com -- -- God knows as your dog knows Bog blast all of you --- Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
