A picture would help a great deal. As I have no idea what one would use
MS-DOS v1.0 for, since the only machines it would run on was IBM-PCs
anyway. And they already have PC-DOS. So who would want to buy MS-DOS
v1.0? See my point? There is no reason for MS-DOS v1.0 at all. There was
no market for it. Not until Compaq created the first clone anyway.

Also thanks for the fake picture of a green alien. I was actually
expecting a fake picture of MS-DOS v1.0 on a CD or a 3.5 inch floppy.
