With DOS it would mean too much work - but I believe a group of determined
coders could be able to port, say, CP/M. Of course it would be "CP/M-like"
OS for RPi rather than "strict port"
Why would they do that? To create much simpler OS for RPI than Linux. Who
needs that whole complexity on such little SBC? CP/M would do just fine.
As Chuck Moore (Forth creator) once said: "most computer operating systems
devolving to caveman interfaces ("point at the pretty pictures and grunt")"
