Somebody seems to have forgotten MS/DOS's heritage and why it was bought (aside from being a cheap and desperate need to quickly give SOMETHING to IBM after already selling an OS they didn't yet have, it was easy to port CP/M apps and commands onto... at least, originally). Also... faught? I laughed. Hard. So hard, I nearly faughted. Couldn't be a typo--If you meant 'fought', it's a long way from o to a. Sorry, sorry.. it's silly, but man that's a weirdo misspelling.
