Hi. Just heard about this, so I dunno really what I'm talking about...
Appearantly, this company is (was) selling liscences for DOS 3.3. I'm
guessing that this is from a deal with MS. Has anyone ever seen this? Is
it available with another product, such as early Windows releases?

Heard about what? You've got to put in things like company names and
things like that. Micro$ rarely _sells_ licenses -- they basically
lease them to you for the life of the product, after which you are
expected to lease another license with the next product you get. Most
new PCs come with Micro$ already licensed, in a large installation it
takes serious bucks to get all of the WfWG (what was originally
licensed/installed at acquisition) stations upgraded to NT Workstation.
When you're dealing with 40-70 thousand workstations.
