I know that they call it MS-DOS 7.x, but I don't think of it as the real
thing because it is missing some commands, such as UNDELETE, that come
with earlier DOS versions. Unlike Windows 3.x, Windows 95 does not let you
set up your CONFIG.SYS and your AUTOEXEC.BAT in such a manner so as to
optimize for your DOS apps. This is definitely a very serious bug. I don't
know if the bug is in MS-DOS 7.x or whether it is in Windows 95.

Thanks for the info on installing DR-DOS in my Windows 95 machine.
