Say hi to Power

[LZ VD]

Power is a new 16-bit OS developed by me. It runs from a 1.44 MB floppy disk and is based off MS-DOS 6.22 and includes a very primitive GUI.

Also, here's a floppy disk image of the system for those who want to try it out: https://drive.google.com/file/d/14AlQ6DHwYdBUNWTdP0iZdCSQf0i--IlN/view?usp=sharing

Hi,

Please tell us a bit more:

1. What do you mean by "based off MS-DOS 6.22"? IIRC the code to
MS-DOS 6.22 has never been made available...
2. Is the source code to your OS anywhere?

Mike

Seems like they just added POWERUI.EXE to an MS-DOS 6.22 boot floppy and added it to autoexec.bat

No, I meant it is based off MS-DOS 6.22 itself but not the source code of it.
