OSNews, Generic OSes The FreeDOS kernel originally produced by Pat Villani and what we consider today to be the full featured operating system "FreeDOS" by Jim Hall and is currently maintained by the FreeDOS team, including many third party contributors. It's first goal was to create a full featured MS DOS clone but it has extended beyond this with features like "out of the box" networking support.

"It's quite a amazing experience to see your desktop firing up within a wink."
Tired to wait minutes to have your desktop usable ?
Booting my MacBook takes just somme seconds more than awake it, which is 2 or 3 seconds. I mean *desktop usable*.
I just open it and use it. Don't have to wait at all.

By the way, why would i want to use a very old pc with no space on disk and so on... ?
