FreeDOS was a project started in 1994 to counteract Microsoft\'s stated intentions to do away with MS-DOS and move everyone to Windows. It employs no Microsoft code and is designed to be a work-alike equivalent to MS-DOS.

1994 by Jim Hall.

Development Status

Very active. The site is up to date. Not as bad as most of the other free operating systems that seem to have sunk into oblivion. Still does not
have multitasking, protected mode. Works under DosEmu.
