   Today I compared my original PC-DOS 3.3 disks (obtained through IBM
direct upgrade last year when 3.3 became available) with the disks currently
being shipped by dealers.  No difference at all- nada. Same file dates
(3-17/87, 3-18/87) on everything.  Specifically with regard to the 'suspect'
programs, the sizes are:

	BACKUP.COM	31913	(who cares?)
	 FDISK.COM	48216
	 VDISK.SYS	 3455
	IBMBIO.COM	22100
	IBMDOS.COM	30159

   If there has been an update this would suggest it never made it into
production.  Is there any evidence to the contrary out there?
