RE: FreeDOS Project: Then and Now
@pagandance,
Are you a Software Eng? I feel you are! In 1994 I was a kid so no idea about this technology! I learnt C, C++, C#, Java and weak in Php and it was one of the most fatal error I have made in my entire life time so far :D
This is actually a great idea!
"FreeDOS is a complete, free, DOS-compatible operating system that you can use to play classic DOS games, run legacy business software, or develop embedded systems. Any program that works on MS-DOS should also run on FreeDOS."
I wish I could be a part of this! Thanks for updating this useful information with us!
Cheers~

@theguruasia,
I am not a software engineer, but I had computers since the ZX81 and have always found it a nice feeling to be in control of your computer, even if you don't have much knowledge or intelligence to grasp everything. And the DOS os was something like that. I liked the idea that you could put a graphic user-shell around it like windows 3.11 and windows 95.
I wish there would come some new free graphic shell that would be as good as Mac or Win7 instead of the ugly and unfriendly linuxes. I don't know if DOS should go to 64 bit then, but if so, I think a 64 bit DOS should certainly be made, so we the world could finally enjoy a totally free and user-friendly and understandable operating system for our computers. As after half a century of 'home computers' we still have to put up with the big ugly greedy moneycrunchers like Microsoft and Apple or else put up with Linux or BSD that are not fit for simple folks.
There should be a free and easy and powerful operating system, understandable and controlable by everybody in the world. I can't understand why we don't have that yet!
Cheers to u 2
@pagandance,
Wow that's big and very interesting! Yeah I also heat that Linux UIs, for me it's complicated! I will join the FB group first! Then I think a little research work is there! I assure I have never did DOS programming, but we can learn nah :D
Cheers~
