Reboots are rare when you can hibernate instead :-) But DOS boots so fast that hibernate is not even needed. > it won't need huge resources to work at all ... How huge is huge? A friend ran a 2.2 Linux on 14-32 MB long time, what is a normal amount of RAM modern cool DOS apps will consume? > it won't try to see "everything" as files ... The file / char dev / block dev interface of DOS is not super duper elegant either, so what is wrong? > it has a way better "DOSEmu" :-)) Because it runs faster and full screen but only once? > it won't have zillions of apps which are not really usable... Let me guess, your mouse is broken so you need DOS? ;-) PS: What does all that tell us about compressed FS...?
