Tough line to walk folks! You wanna clone DOS but yet you don't want "to be tainted" by any suggestions you owe anything to DOS! Think that over a little. Say it to yourself and see how it sounds.
It doesn't matter what the OS is for a lot of stuff. The Intel chips and architecture are what they are and they determine that any and all OSs have to have some source code in common at the machine or Assembler level. I kinda get a kick out of the LINUX crowd thinking the have a different platform than a WIntel box. After three decades of using computers I've seen most of the OSs, apps, etc. Worked on niche stuff like programmable logic controllers and the like. Things a lot of CS types don;t see. I really don't have any loyalty or preference for any of it. When I have an IT project in front of me I do some research to find the best current tools to apply whoever makes em. Thats my interest in DOS. The modern OSs get in the way of simple tasks and just overcomplicate some things. None are the best solution or all things. Windows 8 promo song "All you wanna be is Everything at once!" explains a lot about why its tanking. No platform or OS can be all things and all solutions or apps. Stupid to try. Stupid to be loyal to any of it! We don't hear squat about the OSs or apps or any software for a lot of embedded IT in our lives like microwaves and cars. Why not? Good thing MS isn't involved in software development for automobiles! Can you imagine cars and trucks having deal with Windows 8 or Vista? Where do I put the key in now? How do I shut it off now?
