Not quite that vintage.

The version DR-DOS is currently only a few months old.
Winpack is the latest version.
And Win31 has Microsoft's Year 2000 update installed

If I had been wanting to use a DOS like an PC/MSDOS v3 or less where
it does'nt allow subdirectories (everything has to be in the root dir)
then I could understand my  `wanting to use it`  being questioned :-)

And as for my Revo, it gives me a `laptop in my pocket` with the equivalent
of MS OFFICE built in (and compatable), internet and email, packet and
can run PC DOS programs for something the same size as bar of Bourneville
Dark :-) 

Oh and it can even function as a remote control for my telly
and control my mobile phone sms/phone book management as standard and has
a full qwerty keyboard and does'nt suffer with virii.

Everyone should have one - though I wish it had a backlit screen :-(

(who even has MS Windows Version 1 which fits on a 720k floppy!)
