I never used compressed filesystems anywhere, rather I buy a bigger harddisk but I would never bother with this as it will make things generally more slow and incompatible. > I think, what FreeDOS needs for daily use is a good graphical web > browser, Ages ago there where some discussions about DOSzilla (Mozilla Firefox for DOS) but the project was never released and is dead. Firefox for DOS would be a killer application, pretty cool. Also Arachne as 32 bit could be pretty cool, look at dr webspyoder or lineo embrowser (arachne forks), them start much faster and feel much smoother. After almost 10 years of Arache being Open Source the "development" fatally failed, I think you need to be a hardcore optimist to except to come a 32 bit version ever. > a nice e-mailer, Not a top priority for me. > a word processor like Abiword, FOSS USB > drivers, ...
