I work in DOS for a day (2014)

I would use a 90s version of Slackware over DOS. With DOS you have to fight with different DOS Extenders and all the pain associated with that.

Since DOS is a single-task system, fortunately you only have to fight them one at a time.

Unless you ran DESQview, of course.

You're still fighting them one at a time, just with very small timeslices.

Then you might as well run Linux on a modern PC.
