And speaking of obsolete systems, where would I buy a copy of DOS if I
wanted to run FBB? I haven't seen one for almost 10 years.



Install minimal Windows 95 / 98 / 98SE / ME.
Edit appropriate files (msdos.sys e.g.) to boot to command line.
et voila you are running DOS version 7.x.
This will work just fine.

If you really really need DOS 6.22 or DOS 3.2 or whatever,
go to eBay and pick up a copy or visit your local thrift shops
and paw through the old computer junk. Of course you could
also run freeDOS (surprise! It's free!) or Caldera DOS or
any of various other flavors. They also work just fine, and
can be downloaded or purchsed.

Google for "purchase dos 6.22" and you will find dozens
or perhaps hundreds of places to purchase dos ;-)
