Neuware -Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articlesavailable from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Originally MS-DOSwas designed to be an operating system that could run on any 8086-familycomputer. It competed with other Operating Systems written for x86 basedcomputers, such as CP/M-86 and UCSD Pascal. Each computer would have itsown distinct hardware and its own version of MS-DOS, similar to thesituation that existed for CP/M, and with MS-DOS emulating the samesolution as CP/M to adapt for different hardware platforms. So therewere many different versions of 'MS-DOS' for different hardware. But thegreater speed attainable by direct control of hardware was of particularimportance, especially when running computer games. So very soon anIBM-compatible architecture became the goal, and before long all8086-family computers closely emulated IBM's hardware, and a only singleversion of MS-DOS for a fixed hardware platform was all that was neededfor the market. This version is the version of MS-DOS that is discussedhere, as all other versions of MS-DOS died out with their system. Oneversion of such a DOS (Z-DOS) is mentioned here, but there were dozensmore.VDM Verlag, Dudweiler Landstraße 99, 66123 Saarbrücken 116 pp. Englisch.

IBM PC DOS is aDOS system for the IBM Personal Computer and compatibles, manufacturedand sold by IBM from the 1980s to the 2000s. As a result of theantitrust agreement with IBM and the Department of Justice, IBM had tooutsource the bulk of the computer components to outside companies.Microsoft was the successful applicant for the operating system. Whenthey showed IBM their acquisition 86- DOS, it inspired IBM to write itsown DOS, and back license it to Microsoft.
