There is no version of DOS underneath NT, 2000, or XP. All three
can run DOS programs with an included emulator.

95, 98, and ME all run on top of an included DOS, although with ME
this was somewhat hidden from view.

As I said before, I've seen Arachne running in a DOS window with
95 and 98. I don't know if it would run with XP or 2000. I think
it should, but I don't know. 

After the holidays I'm going to run some tests with XP and Arachne
and Win-modems with my friend at the local computer store. I'll
let you know the results.
