Maybe it would be a good idea to take one of these, and put a link right on the FreeDOS website, in the download section at http://www.freedos.org/download/ with a little note 'if you need to bring alive an old and rusty pc with only a floppy drive onboard, take this 1.44M bootable image' ? Even if it's only for 0.0001% of the user base, it's still nice.. plus, the fact that there would a floppy image available for download is also a message 'FreeDOS cares about old systems'. just my $0.03. :) Mateusz ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
