Three or four years back I had a job where we were porting a large C-DOS app to WinNT. One of the major reasons was that there was virtually no support for C-DOS. I don't remember if it was this "Concurrent Systems" or one of the others. That C-DOS used the PC monitor, but it was a pain dealing with only one process being "displayable" at a time - a windowing system helps a lot for that.
At one point I tried to persuade my boss we ought to look at a port to Linux, but he had the idea that users who could barely operate Windoze would have much more trouble with Linux and wouldn't hear of it.
