The GEM I have runs on DOS. (I also have a copy of GEM for the Tandy2000,

Back in my Desktop Publishing days, I ran Ventura Publisher under runtime
GEM on top of DOS. I also seriously looked at GEMDraw, but rather picked
a new drawing package that ran on Windows 2.11 called CorelDraw :-)
Little did I know that years later Corel would buy Ventura Publisher.

Regarding
interesting OS's that run on XT's:
If you're talking about the GEM I think you're talking about. Wasn't it
licensed from Digital Research? GEM is also the basis for the 16 & 32-bit
Atari's. I just can't remember at this point if the PC version ran on DOS,
or if it required CP/M to run.
