As an end user, your fears are probably foolish. Emulation and virtualization work fine for anybody playing with DOS at the application level. DOS as a platform for embedded computing using generic PCs might be more of a problem. There will come a day when a new generic PC will not boot the current versions of DOS that we know and love. People using DOS that way will probably move to more suitable embedded environments before that time comes.
