I can't stand MSDOS and would never buy a machine just because it ran MSDOS.
I'd still buy a Sun 386i machine because:

	1.  it's really fast (I've tried it)
	2.  it has decent big-screen, 8 bit, frame buffer graphics
	3.  it runs real UNIX and NFS
	4.  you can install 16MB of RAM
	5.  there are lots of 3rd party software vendors
	6.  it runs X11 and NeWS windows
	7.  it's real cheap for what you get

These are very popular features and there are no other machines like this.
Unfortunately, RAM and 386 chips are scarce, so these machines may be hard
to get.
