- JM..If DR-DOS conforms to all published interfaces to MS-DOS, and a new version
- JM..Windows breaks when used with that same DOS, and the previous version worked
- JM..fine, and MS refuses to help fix the problem, then the conclusion that MS
- JM..intentionally made Windows quit working on DR-DOS is very hard to escape.

- Maybe, Jay. Even probably. OTOH, knowing DR's previous track record I
- would tend to suspect their programming incompetence as well as
- Microsoft's paranoia. However, to be fair to DR, I understand that it
- wasn't actually anything to do with DR-DOS's compatibility. As far as OI
- know, Win31 actively looked for DRDOS and then refused to run with it
- loaded.
