> Why on earth would you want a diskless Disk Operating System ???

It's idiot proof, back in days on Czech tech. university, that I studied, there was tens of diskless computers connected to Internet for students in 2 computer classrooms.
There was a choice to boot Win98 or Linux via PXE. After login you can access your personal network drive (huh, just only ~20MB) and after logout the computer rebooted in clean state. Also few computers had Iomega 100 ZIP drive where I could download bigger files.

DOS gives me freedom to unlimited HW access.
