Actually, much better, if you consider OS/2's "Lie List".  This functionality
"lies" to a running DOS program if it has to run on a specific version of
DOS.  OS/2's Virtual DOS Machine (VDM) is more adaptable than plain
DOS.  This goes for Win3x, too.  After all, Windows is nothing more than
an elephant on a pig's back.
