Same here. I wish I could go back to DOS.

Heh. Well, you can always try out FreeDOS. Or DOSBox. Or DOSEMU.

I've been running Linux as my main home OS since Aug, 1998.

heck MS dos runs fine on modern computers, its not going to deal with multigig SATA hard drives or piles of ram, but I have installed it on a old laptop drive for my retro computers using a PhenomII and it runs quite quick

Well, I suspect he might not have those old disks lying around. Heck, as much of a packrat as I am (and there are folks here who put me to shame in that regard :slight_smile: ), even I don't have DOS disks. And lots of machines these days don't have floppy drives either. Running DOS in a VM is a good solution here.
