[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 468255, member: 24098"] That is an important distinction. The Windows 9x series of operating system ran on top of DOS. NT/2000/XP and now Vista run on the NT kernel. There is nothing left of DOS in modern versions of Windows (aside from the command prompt, which is simply a remake of the familiar DOS commands - it still runs on top of NT). Regardless of what people say or think about Macs, usually after showing them the machine for a few minutes, it's enough to change their tune. I would just say "don't knock it until you try it".
