Well yes, but that's kinda like saying that (for example) fdisk won't

Phill.
when you are trying to revive an IBM 5150, that :
[...]
- you don't remember which is the last DOS
version that runs on a
standard 5150
As far as I know, all releases of IBM PC DOS/IBM DOS through 6.x
and
MS-DOS through 6.x work on a 5150. I'm not sure about IBM PC DOS 7, IBM
PC DOS 2000, or MS-DOS 7.x.
Obviously some features of the later versions of DOS aren't going to
work on the 5150, e.g., EMM386.
