>>If an advertised computer says; Operating System: DOS 7.0 Does that mean Win95 then to us computer challenged? Although Sean is correct as to other possibilities, as far as I know none of the mentioned OSs are currently being maintained. IBM's PC DOS license expired a couple of years ago and Microsoft declined to renew it, or so I read. DR-DOS did have a version 7.0 out several years ago, but it's odds-on that the ad referred to Win 95 DOS, IMO. As to why, I could only speculate, but I'll skip it as I suspect it would reveal innate hostile feelings toward marketing types <g>. Spots
