DOS 5.0 was a "Disk Operating System", not an "Operating System" as that
would assume control over a bit more than disk drives and various bits
of hardware. There wasn't even a hint of security in DOS (input any
version), a feature vital in a multiuser/multitasking environment. Come
to think of it, DOS beasts couldn't multitask either. Our Cromix
machines would run rings around the early PC's and we had them in the
late 70's and early 80's.
