I think there may be a bit of confusion we need to let new DOS users aware of, and that is DOS is a "Text-Mode" system and not graphical like Windows, Linux, MacOS, etc.
DOS by nature is only text (although graphics is possible) Maybe make a distinction between "Text Resolution" and "Graphic/Screen Resolution" DOS when booted is 80 characters with 25 lines using an 8x16 pixel font. This could be called a text resolution of 640x400 (not 640x480 which is actually 30 lines of 80 characters). You can change the number of lines and the number of characters per line as well as the width and height of the font (like 8x32 or 9x16) which will give ya more room or less depending on your choices as well as change the look of the text, but this is still ALL text not graphics. Also of note is that although ya can be making changes, DOS has the tendency to revert back to its default state of 25x80 8x16 native font when he screen gets cleared or when exiting different software. This is my two cents about DOS Mode. Just remember DOS is Text (by default) not Graphics.
