It's a pity that I don't understand it very well. Actually, I really envy the feeling of others when playing DOS.

DOS is simply cute, but its practicality is not diminished at all. Just like water, it is universal and indispensable!

Why Learn DOS

I. What is DOS?
DOS, the English abbreviation of Disk Operating System, means disk operating system. Generally speaking, DOS refers to the command-line mode of early operating systems. It has played a very important role in the development process of PC computers, and once almost dominated the world, with many users and enthusiasts in the world. There are also many versions of DOS, such as PC-DOS, DR-DOS, ROM-DOS, FreeDOS, MS-DOS, etc. The most commonly used one is MS-DOS. The most practical one is MS-DOS 7.10.

II. What is an operating system?
If you are going to build a house for yourself, you don't need to understand building materials such as bricks, tiles, wood, and paint by yourself, nor do you need to hire carpenters, masons, plumbers, and other workers in person. The construction company will do all this for you. You just need to put forward your ideas on the planning and decoration style of the house, and the workers will come to the construction site every day and work in an orderly manner with the existing building materials. This is the credit of the construction company. Similarly, you can regard DOS as a contractor like a construction company and entrust similar things to it for management.
If you install an operating system in the computer, it can:
1. Manage and control hardware
For example, the letters you type on the keyboard naturally appear on the screen; the speaker or earphone can play beautiful songs; computers will communicate with each other through the network card and network cable...
2. Can help you communicate with the computer
It can make the computer execute your commands; it can display the feedback messages of the computer on the screen...
3. Can save information and find them when you need them
4. Can provide a stable operating platform for other software and manage them
5....

In fact, from this perspective, Windows series, UNIX/Linux, etc., are all operating systems, and some are far more advanced than the command-line DOS.

III. Why learn DOS?
Since there are so many operating systems more advanced than DOS, why still learn DOS?
1. First of all, please pay attention that the DOS we are talking about now refers to the new era DOS, not the previous PC-DOS, MS-DOS, etc. The new era DOS represents freedom, openness and development! It can develop and promote together with other operating systems, such as Windows, Linux and other systems, and each has its own important value, which is the most beautiful.
2. The Windows series enriches the DOS world. It is a graphical interface operating environment running under the DOS operating system. Therefore, DOS is a powerful, practical and stable operating system! It can be used for system repair when the Windows system crashes. The functions of Windows can all be realized in DOS. It is closer to the bottom layer. Learning DOS can make you understand Windows and the computer more.
3. DOS has a history of many years. Its programs and learning materials are easier to obtain than Unix/Linux. In the industry, the compatibility of DOS is the best. It has low requirements for the system and the most extensive application scope. Moreover, compared with Unix/Linux, it is simple, small, easy to learn and use.

DOS is a nostalgic memory of the past
It is also a process of development
The technology of DOS will never go out of style
Indeed, many things now rely on DOS to exist
The communication in DOS is the most direct, so it is said to be pure

That's a good point! But currently, the development of DOS lags behind the Windows series and Unix/Linux. We need to face the reality and work hard to catch up!

Why learn DOS? I think just because it's simple, stable, and most importantly, it's open source. Anyone can join in, improve and perfect it, making it more advanced and in line with your own wishes. Summarized as - "Do as you please", "Appreciate oneself in solitude"

Who can tell me the disadvantages of DOS, and compare it with Windows and Linux. Know yourself and know your enemy, and you can win a hundred battles without danger.

DOS is a great thing. I learned it ten years ago and it's not outdated now!
