	Has anyone heard when MS DOS 5.0 will be introduced ?
I got tired of waiting and got Digital Research DOS 5.0 and it
appears to do everything claimed for MS DOS 5.0 and is very clean
without any major compatibility problems. I am able to load over
100k of TSR's and drivers and still have >620k of conventional
memory. It works fine with QEMM 5.11 and Windows 3 in 386 enhanced
mode but you "only" have 607k coventional memory.

	I have no affiliation with Digital Research, just a satisfied
user.
