On the contrary, the 9801 series is an ms-dos machine, though
not IBM-PC compatible.  There's a hardware SLE board that emu-
lates the PC if you absolutely need it.

Generic ms-dos programs work fine.  The machine is superior in
many ways to the standard PC.

The 9801 is very much like the APC-3 offered in the U.S., while
the newer APC-4 is a real AT compatible.
