I am passimistic about DR-DOS (not DOS, just DR-DOS) because Caldera
have seemed to drop just about any development related to it.
They're moving to Linux-only development, and about a year or two
ago Tim (from Caldera) have mentioned in the list that most of the
profits from DR-DOS come to the embadded market and not to the desktop
PC, which is why they stoped developing and bug-fixing desktop-mainly
utilities such as fdisk. Also, beside a tech note in their products
section (And maybe in downloads) its hard to find anything about
DR-DOS in their site anymore.
