DOS ain't dead

ACPITOOL v1.1 (Announce)

I can prove you wrong quite easily: UEFI BIOS is not possible. It does exist. What exists is a precedent, not a possibility. What's more, I've even given a practical example of it, not to mention UEFI up to class three that normally comes with a BIOS interface out of the box. Please, next time read what you react to.

Also, as I said, an UEFI DOS is not a good idea as long as it doesn't provide the entire BIOS interface together with the DOS services, because user programs will still rely on standard BIOS calls.

DOS isn't about why. It's about why not.
