Re:Some people still run Novell networks (Score 1)

This is such tiresome claptrap - at least do some research before making such statements. GUI: Added in NW 5 Preemptive Multitasking: Added in NW 5 DOS: NetWare (btw, the *company* is Novell, the *NOS* is NetWare - calling the NOS "Novell" is like calling Windows "Microsoft") never was "based on DOS". It uses DOS as a *boot loader*. It could just as well use anything else -say, Linux. Once NetWare boots, DOS is shoved out of the way and may be removed from memory if desired. NetWare runs on the bare metal.
