Paul, I see that you are a firm believer in the speed and effeciency of an O/S like MS-DOS as I am.
Never seen an O/S that beats it.
Quick basic is Platinum as well.
The O/S we are writing is a 32bit P-Mode Multitasker that is almost a clone of MS-Dos 6.22. It even
uses the very same file system as MS-Dos does, only it's Fat32. It runs from a floppy and to the
average user it would just be Dos.
MS Dos is the easiest O/S to program for and under as well.

I remember in the old days before Windows, everyone said that MSDOS
wasn't a real
operating system, as compared to CPM.  Did it evolve into a "real"
operating system?
It certainly became the standard and CPM went away.
