Surprised they haven't dropped 32bit version of Win10.

In my office I have one DOS program that I use.
I therefore need 32 bit version.

DOSbox or DOSemu?

Exactly. I can't imagine that there is still a need for there to be
integrated DOS support in light of the existence of free software to
create virtual environments and then run FreeDOS as well as DOS
emulation software which is 100% compatible.

I especially don't think that it makes sense for Microsoft to cater to
these legacy users and compromise on new features to please them. If
you still need to run DOS applications, either run an older version of
Windows which runs them properly or do the right thing and run them
within an emulator of some sort.


Yes, I'm all for gutting an OS, until there's nothing left.

Preference should be given to starting afresh, rather than the gutting
you suggest. Then again, this would be considered to much work and
trouble for the measly human mentality.

1. Have you noticed that starting afresh often leaves one with an OS
sorely in need of gutting?

2. Did you notice that Paul was being sarcastic?
Have you ever bothered to consider and realize that that which you
postulate does not have to be so?

Why, I ask and with all due respect, are humans so brain dead and base
their conclusions on presumptiveness from the negative?

Well, you could start by looking to yourself for answers.

That's an extraordinarily presumptuous statement you just made, but what
I've come to expect from the closed-mindedness and dogmatic attitude of
humans. The first principle of life that every human has of necessity to
learn, as I've often repeated, "Truth is not subservient to human
concept." This applies similarly to technology and science, as they
contain an array of absolute human garbage within them.
