	What is so 'scumbaggish' about MS-DOS?

	When I used UNIX at school, I loved it.  The tools just
blew my mind.  Nice games too.  Now at work I use MS-DOS and
think it is just fine.  Naturally it doesn't have the tools
that UNIX does, but then it takes up so little memory.  If UNIX
wasn't such a memory hog it would have been used a lot more 
extensively.   

	So tell me, what are you so disappointed with MS-DOS
about?
