XP does run a mighty fine DOS box.
No it doesn't. It has a bug in how it does the environment variables.
They don't allocate any room for new ones and you can't use a:
command /e:10000 /csome.bat
to get around the bug.
All my old DOS stuff seems to work... my inventory control/parts list
system (now networked to the server), assemblers, APEEL, the DOS
PowerBasic environment and compiler, and my various compiled DOS apps,
graphics and all. And it still runs my favorite PC program of all
time, Tim Stouse's File Manager.

Turbo C 2.01 and Turbo Pascal 6 run fine under both 2k and XP, even in
graphics mode.
