I agree with the author, but I fail to see the point you are trying to 
make regarding FreeDOS.

FreeDOS users are free to use whatever software they like - and I'm 
pretty sure most FreeDOS users run FreeDOS to execute mainly proprietary 
applications (old games, productivity software from the nineties, etc) - 
after all, that's exactly what FreeDOS has been designed for in the 
first place.

What FreeDOS, as a /distribution/ ships with, is a totally different 
subject. The article you point to doesn't imply that Linux distributions 
should start distributing closed-source software.
