Is no one else running DOS on late model machines to do actual work. My primary machines now are Pentium D. With a mix of PATA and SATA. I have rather recent suites from Corel and M$. But my word processor of choice is still WP 6.2a DOS. My accounts payable program was written in 1995. Once in a while I do a serious search for a new program, and then stick with what I have. I have had a UPS driver with a COD, and I have booted DOS and printed a check, and the driver did not feel I unnecessarily delayed him. Try that with a GUI. I also have a material requirements planning program that can still keep up. I actually think chasing numbers and letters around the screen with a mouse is not very efficient. I also have a printed circuit layout program.
And I have to work real hard to crash DOS.
