wrong. command.com should stay at the root directory - for the simple
reason that the kernel expects it (by default there), and otherwise
F5 won't work. BTW: command.com has been there for about 20 years, no
reason to change that.

me too. you *are* able to use any command interpreter you like, but
*default* should be command.com
