  I'm not sure that DOS is commonly used in embedded systems.
  I know that OSes such as lynx and epoch are..  I'll have to
  plead general ignorance on this one.  That's something for
  the execs to figure out I suppose..

  Actually, sarcasm IS REBOL's company policy (I'm being
  sarcastic (-: big grin).  We're REBOLs afterall!

  But in all seriousness: this discussion of DOS has come up
  before and we unfortunately have to concede that DOS is not
  one of our targets because we don't think it's worth it.
  Maybe when we're as big as Microsoft then we can assign a
  team to making something like that work, but we're a wee
  little group building this thing right now! :-)

  Also in all seriousness: We love our users and we mean no
  offense by our occasional glibness! Feel free to flame us to
  perdition if it seems otherwise! (-: smiles all around...
