I have PC-DOS 2000, or more accurately PC-DOS 7.0 Rev. 1.  PC-DOS 2000 is
the name of the whole package.

I replaced my DRDOS 7.02/3 with it.  I have had a hard time with PC-DOS's
memory requirements.  I do have a lot of drivers, and I don't remember how
much memory I had under DRDOS, but I think it was more.  Ramboost is
worthless....I got more all by myself.  I will say that the memory managers
of PCDOS aren't flakey like the ones that come with DRDOS.  I could get some
things to work with the DRDOS memory managers, like Norton's Wipe program.

I keep on thinking that I may install DRDOS 7.02 on a machine, but use
Quarterdecks QEMM8 memory manager.  I think that will work well.

I tried PTS-DOS, but didn't like the delay in the download version.  I also
didn't really want to mess with something so different than what I was used
to, on my main machine.
