You mean Windoze is a high-performance environment?  Cool.

However, if memory serves, a lot of Windows apps use the INT21h services
for disk I/O, so to some extent Windows needs DOS support.  To recompile a
shell like COMMAND or 4DOS (bash?) to a Win32 app should be relatively...
difficult knowing MS.  Oh well.
