	Well, while we've all got the fuzzies comparing various OS
	kernels, kere is the info for io.sys and msdos.sys from MS
	DOS.

--rahs     40470 Wed Mar 10 06:00:00 1993 io.sys*
--rahs     38138 Wed Mar 10 06:00:00 1993 msdos.sys*

	Of course, this doesn't include anything useful, such as networking,
	more than one process at a time, a useable and enjoyable filesystem,
	or spam.




						TOodlepip!

	P.S:  Apply :-)'s liberally for the humor impaired.
