  I tried 4DOS for a week, but I took it off my system due to a bug.
At first all worked well, but at some point I was no longer able to
copy files from one disk to another (harddrive --> floppy, floppy -->
harddrive).  It wouldn`t have been so bad except that the files were
destroyed in the process.  I first believed it was only due to using
the 286 version, but the same thing happened on my machine at home using
the 8088 version.

  If 4DOS has this bug, it could also have others.  You may want to
contact the author before purchasing the $50 version.
