Let's start again: Dos4Mac shows just a few of the pathetic features of DOS, that awful command-line interface for those other computers.
Stick it in an enemie's StartUp Folder, or just load it up when an IBM user is at your computer. Tell the friend you're new to the world of DOS and you'd like him to show you the tricks he's learned.
He'll load it and wait patiently for the Pseudo-DOS to load. (He's used to SLOW computing if he uses an IBM/PC!)
He'll then see the unusual startup message. If he starts to get suspicious, tell them, "Oh, I just messed around with that in ResEdit." The friend, if he is a true PC user, will believe you. He'll press a key and be presented with that gut-wrenching, Mac-enemy:
C:
Watch as he tries to do something. Anything. And fails, miserably, being confronted with the too-familiar-to-PC-users Abort, Retry, Fail message.
After maybe five minutes, say that you're disappointed. You thought he knew DOS. You thought DOS was good. If you want him to know you've put one over him, access the secret exit command - COMMAND-! That's command-exclamation point.
If you don't want him to know, just force-quit. Enjoy!
