[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] Any comments on DR DOS 5.0?

ries@venice.SEDD.TRW.COM (Marc Ries) (07/24/90)

I'm somewhat surprised that no one has used/commented on the Digital 
Research DOS V5.0 OS for the IBM-PC.  The PC-WEEK Windows Special insert
had a full-page ad:

     Introducing  DR DOS 5.0: Windows 3.0 compatible and much, much more.
                              Shipping May 1990.

Anybody use it? Comments?

Have a look on "COMP.OS.MSDOS.MISC"  There have been a number of postings
lately regarding DR-DOS, both V3.41 and V5.0
