non-DOS (yet): an interesting project for x86-64 (Miscellaneous)
Hello glennmcc,

OK, so what exactly is the point of calling an OS "a 64-bit MS-DOS" when it cannot actually run any existing MS-DOS programs at any level whatsoever?
OK, suppose someone creates a 64-bit OS and calls it "a 64-bit MS-DOS". How does one make existing MS-DOS software (or the source code thereof) run on this new "64-bit MS-DOS"? How exactly will the porting process be different from porting some existing MS-DOS program to, say, Solaris? Or to Windows? What exactly is it that will make this new OS "a 64-bit MS-DOS", and Solaris or Windows "definitely not a 64-bit MS-DOS"?
The distinction you make between "a 64-bit MS-DOS" and "definitely not a 64-bit MS-DOS" sounds like a distinction without a difference. Words need to have some connection with reality in order to be meaningful.
