IBM-compatible with DOS used to mean compatible with IBM mainframes
running DOS/VSE. *sigh*
Peace... Sridhar
Now admittedly I've moaned that 'for IBM
compatibles' should mean it'll
run on an 8088 with 640K of RAM and either an MDA or CGA card, but these
days that's unlikely to be the case :-(
What? You mean it won't run on a 7090?
