Oh yeah - that's another thing I forgot to mention.
People slap copyrights on things precisely because
they know that some people will do things with the
software that they don't want them to do.

I cater for those people who want to do those things.

Almost no-one else does. If you try to find
some public domain OSes, you won't find much.

I looked at DOS32A a couple of weeks ago, saw
that it used segments, and lost interest.
