On 386 with more than 4 Mb of RAM installed and EMM386 /MULTI=ON 
in [D]CONFIG.SYS, the memory managers of Novell DOS 7, OpenDOS 7.01, 
DR-OpenDOS 7.02, and DR-DOS 7.02+ all provide hardware virtualization
(multiple virtual DOS machines), pre-emptive multitasking, and 
multithreading (if  Vladivar  has been enabled by a client 
like TASKMGR loaded as a multitasker).
