I know that you love to supply huge lists, but you probably should be aware that some people - including me - won't get intimidated by such "information", because they prefer quality over quantity.

I know that you love to talk, so it's not very surprising for me that you like people who are "slightly" talkative.

This isn't appreciated, because I use FreeDOS for testing purposes only. I still prefer MS-DOS, simply because it is better IMO. Additionally, I'm not a victim of the "Freedom illusion", so the GPL-guy's propaganda is unable to have any impact on my thinking.
