I see many people asking this question: Why use DOS? Now let's answer it:
Answer: DOS is a powerful and practical operating system, and there are a large number of application programs that can perform various functions, such as accessing the Internet, listening to songs in MP3 and other formats, viewing images in JPG and other formats, word processing, system maintenance, etc. DOS is very fast and efficient to use, and can do many things that other operating systems cannot do or do not do well, and can enable users to master various basic knowledge that ordinary users of other operating systems (such as Windows) have not mastered, so as to use the computer more flexibly and handle various operations, etc. Therefore, it has many users and enthusiasts. The DOS era can be divided into two stages, namely the old DOS era and the new DOS era. The main feature of the former is "purity", and the main feature of the latter is "free and open". Everyone knows the "open source code" movement, right! With its popularity, free and open has become a new trend in software development, rather than in closed systems (such as Windows). Like FreeDOS, Linux, etc., are representatives of free operating systems and have been greatly developed, and then the new DOS era came into being. In the new DOS era, especially abroad, new DOS software is constantly updated and launched, and the quality is also very high. For details, see "The Development of DOS in Recent Years". So especially for users and enthusiasts of DOS, as well as those who like free and open and continuous exploration, using DOS is practical and also very valuable. Isn't it? |

The refresh rate of 85Hz under DOS can be achieved, including two major types: software method and hardware method.

You said: The main feature of the former is "innocence"
Can you explain it? |

The following is a quote from Michael on 2003-4-30 11:12:06: You can read the following article called "The Innocent DOS Era", which is one of the representative works commemorating the old DOS era: Remember those days of using DOS, innocent and full of fun. Remember those innocent and ignorant buddies who used to stay in the computer lab night after night, playing bloody DOOM and glorious Three Kingdoms under DOS. At that time, we were confident because we were the masters of the computer, and everything was within our control. Remember that the book we loved to read the most was the one written by our idol - that famous Chinese programming master's "Unpublished DOS Secrets". Exploring those dangerous interruptions and making some small games and simulating the WINDOWS interface were our greatest pleasures. We could even create a small benign virus to play a small joke on the lab, or use DEBUG to remove the write protection of the lab's hard drive, allowing classmates to be free from the lab's restrictions. We were unbridled because DOS was open and belonged to everyone, and we all soared in an equal world. However, the innocent era will eventually pass. When we grow up, those new theories and life needs are stuffed into our minds, and we must face developing software on the WINDOWS platform. I have to use the clipboard to copy those long-winded API functions and create those monotonous GUI interfaces; I am taught to be conventional and standard, and everything is standard. I have lost my individuality. When I am constantly learning VC, VB, VF, PB, I often miss the innocent DOS era: the tea with a girlfriend and wonderful interruptions. However, the innocent era will never come again. Those who grew up under WINDOWS will never remember DOS and will never understand the impact DOS had on our generation. Yes, as an operating system, DOS cannot compare with WINDOWS in any element, and it is even more foolish in terms of security and multitasking, but it is open. It was an era of flamboyant personality, an era of youth and passion. DOS is gone. In today's development, we will always be slaves to WINDOWS! Perhaps one day, those who grew up in the innocent DOS era will write a DOS emulator on WINDOWS 2000 like missing APPLE II, to relive the innocent feeling. However, the innocent era will never return because DOS has gone! |

I read this article before, and I found it by searching "dos nostalgia" on Google. But it didn't explain what the meaning of this "innocence" is??????

What is innocence? I think one can only understand it when one has cultivated to the point of having "stepping through gravel" within the body!

The following is a quote from Wengier on 2003-5-3 7:51:41: Note: Because there are two characters that cannot be typed below, they are replaced with pinyin. She li is a substance automatically produced in the body when fe zu has practiced to a certain level, which means he has become fe! |

I'll take the liberty of answering this question on behalf of Wengier : )
The answer to this question can be fully answered in Wengier's "New DOS Era". This site seems to have several domain names, and I think the following one is faster http://www.cn-dos.net/newdos/dosmain.html |

Then please ask someone who has "sheli" to explain to everyone what "innocence" is. Thank you! |

Hehe...... Innocence means both pure and true - pure means transparent without any impurities; true means real and equal, with no distinction for all beings who use it...
