Personally for me it would be an interesting experience to see what and why they chose to do things they did with MS-DOS. One thing to try is to see if it's possible to write a 64 bit DOS extender.

There’s a couple attempts at running 64-bit in DOS. It usually has no benefits for old code and very little new 64-bit is being written and there are no libraries for common compilers.
