If the plan holds this will be next year. And it will be running FreeDOS and all those DOS programs I've missed for the past years.
As for these past years I've just played around with FreeDOS in emulators such as QEMU, VirtualBox and DOSEMU. (After I stopped using Windows 95, which had DOS built-in.) But for the purpose - mostly great DOS games - DOSBox was more suitable. > so you have no Euro sign in DOS tststs ;-) Back in the 90's there was no €uro. After the Millenium I was already with Windows, shortly after with Linux. I'm very happy with Gentoo Linux now. (Although I miss my old 4DOS environment a bit... And the games...) > > BTW I didn't like the zeros "0" in MS-DOS 4.01 - it had a dot > > inside the circle, DR DOS had the zeros crossed out with a line > > Okay so either this is a difference in your VGA BIOSes or you > did use DISPLAY and MODE to load a MS or DR DOS font yourself. I think MS-DOS 4.01 had different CPI's compated to them from DR DOS 5.0 - but also, after removing the DISPLAY.SYS and MODE lines, the VGA BIOSes must have been different, too. Anyway, I was able (with a borrowed MS-DOS 4.01 - shhh!) to get the same font like my friend had (with the ugly zeros) after a fresh MS-DOS installation. DISPLAY.SYS and MODE was active at that time. Well, thank you, Eric. It was a pleasure! I'm looking forward to using my original 80486 PC with FreeDOS.
