[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] DR DOS 5.0 and MS DOS 5.0...

I keep reading that MS DOS 5.0 will have all the features of DR DOS
5.0 plus more. The question is when the heck is it going to be
available? Is it just worth it to buy DR DOS 5.0 now because the
release date of MS DOS 5.0 is way off in the future?

Haven't handled either of these first hand. From colleagues beta-testing
MS DOS 5.0 and from postings about DR DOS 5.0, I don't believe that
the MS DOS has the directory write protection found in DR DOS 5.0.
