Mozilla has now eaten my message twice. I'll keep it short since I'm
tired of fighting with it. An article a few advocacy's back
(Cringely's pulpit) had an amazing factual error in it. It stated that
because you could get a C:> prompt in Windows XP, that it's still based
on MS-DOS. This is not true. And it makes the entire discussion of
"why you should replace Windows with Linux to get rid of MS-DOS" pretty
worthless. Besides, that's basically what WINE is doing, and it's far
from perfectly compatible. I'll happily continue the discussion, but
I'm keeping it short until I figure out why Mozilla doesn't want me to
say it.
