    I think you can still boot DOS

    And many still do.

    A|houigh most of what DOS can do is done better on a raspberry PI PICO
    or arduino...

    I thought DOS was removed from Windows starting in Windows ME..

    It was, however there's a command-line-only rescue mode in later
    Windows desktop releases (though I don't know about the current
    ones) that is clearly inspired by DOS and is probably what Windows
    users would call a "DOS prompt".


    Oh cool, I don't think I've ever seen it.
