The short answer is yes.  If you were really hot to get it, too bad,
you probably missed the beta program.  If your still really hot for it,
you can run the standard MS release, but this won't support all of your
Zenith features.  This ZDS release of MS-DOS is closer to generic MS-DOS
than past ZDS releases.  This was a design goal of the project, and
something I view as a positive feature effecting compatibility.

Exact release date is a marketing question, so don't ask me.
