I am sure the following questions have been asked before
but as a new usenet reader I ask your indulgence.

Assuming a system with the COMPUPRO 8085/8088 card running
CPM-86 is there any migration path to MS-DOS.  Have any usenet
readers installed MS-DOS or a look alike on a non-IBM system?

Is there a list of IBM-PC programs that will run in a non-IBM
MS-DOS environment (such as Lotus 123)?

I have been a CPM-80 user for 7 years and now need to catch up
with the rest of the 8086 world.  Thanks for any help.
