Great, things look so simpler all the time.
Ok. Theory - maybe NetWare itself is a software which is runable
by DOS (can NetWare quit to DOS?), and it also have a small OS program
that can be used when you cant run NetWare itself using DOS?
.I think that the problem is actually that each company took the term
"OS" and used it for their needs as they saw fit. Really makes things
all complex and yucky.
.Maybe the answer is in the past of computing, before the entire
thing turned totaly commercial?
