Uhhh. Your history is a little foggy.  PCs were invented before DOS
1.0, which was purchased from Seattle Computer Systems (I think) and
was a knock off of CPM-86.

Uhhh.  There weren't no .386 stuff when PCs or DOS was invented.  The
iAPX386 chip didn't come out until several years later.  PCs used the
8088 chip which was an 8-bit external bus version of the 8086, which
had a 16-bit external bus.  Both had 16-bit internal busses.

The rest of what you said I mostly agree with.
