- You know, I have heard that (I think) piece of bull for years. In
- ALL of the years I've used DOS 3, I have NEVER encountered any bug,
- lost information, or anything. Hell, I even asked Atari on their
- BBS and they couldn't tell me of any bugs or even fixes. If there
- any true, documented bugs, I'd like to know.
-
- I've used various terminal programs, Express, Amodem, etc. with DOS
- 3 and.... no problems. AtariWriter, AT8GIF, ARC, GIFNCODE,
- GIFDCODE, nothing. The only time I use DOS 2, is when I am using a
- protected program that uses DOS 2, or a custom format program, like
- SynStock.
