是的,从研究的角度,FreeDOS32 是不错的,填补了一项空白。但是,从实用角度,确实没必要在这上面花费时间了。
FreeDOS32 是一个全新的 32 位操作系统,和旧的 DOS 不存在二进制兼容性。所有的 DOS 应用程序都需要重新编写,否则不能在 FreeDOS32 下运行。
作为全新的操作系统,FreeDOS32 值得研究。但是,如果把旧的 DOS 兼容性看得比较重要,那么 FreeDOS32 就黯然失色了。既然名字叫做 DOS 而不能很好地兼容 DOS,这就使得 FreeDOS32 成了孤立无援的一个开发项目。也正因如此,有时候大家会觉得 FreeDOS32 毫无价值。
单从技术上讲,FreeDOS32 很有特色,也应该继续开发下去。但是,如果考虑到别的因素,比如因为有微软的存在,微软的系统比较重要、比较热门,那么其它现存的系统,也都不得不考虑和微软的兼容性问题,比如,LINUX 可以说一开始就是 UNIX 的血统,和微软很少有联系,但是现在,LINUX 上有很多项目就是为了兼容微软而存在的(比如著名的 Wine 和 OpenOffice 就是的)。因此像 FreeDOS32 这样的系统,不会有很多人去关注,甚至慢慢地就被边缘化了。
FreeDOS32 和 FreeDOS 比起来,前者由于缺乏 DOS 兼容性而失去人气,后者因为具有较好的 DOS 兼容性而获得更多的关注。
Yes, from a research perspective, FreeDOS32 is good and fills a gap. But from a practical perspective, it's really not necessary to spend time on it.
FreeDOS32 is a brand - new 32 - bit operating system and has no binary compatibility with the old DOS. All DOS applications need to be rewritten, otherwise they can't run under FreeDOS32.
As a brand - new operating system, FreeDOS32 is worthy of research. But if the compatibility with the old DOS is considered relatively important, then FreeDOS32 is overshadowed. Since it's called DOS but can't be well compatible with DOS, this makes FreeDOS32 an isolated development project. And it's for this reason that sometimes everyone feels that FreeDOS32 is of no value.
From a technical point alone, FreeDOS32 is very characteristic and should continue to be developed. But if other factors are considered, such as because of the existence of Microsoft, and Microsoft's systems are more important and popular, then other existing systems also have to consider compatibility with Microsoft. For example, LINUX can be said to have the lineage of UNIX from the very beginning and has little connection with Microsoft, but now there are many projects on LINUX that exist for compatibility with Microsoft (such as the famous Wine and OpenOffice). Therefore, a system like FreeDOS32 won't be paid much attention by many people and will even be gradually marginalized.
Compared with FreeDOS, FreeDOS32 loses popularity due to the lack of DOS compatibility, while the latter gains more attention because of having better DOS compatibility.
