I am especially frusterated because it has been less than two months
since I ordered their Free Apple II software and I was NOT Warned! I do
have an account there which I started on my Father's IBM, but since he
doesn't know how to use it, it's sitting there being wasted!

As far as the DOS version cut-off, it's basically the same reason for
the Apple II cut-off. So few people have them anymore. (Relatively,
anyway.) Most of the old DOS users have upgraded to a 386 or higher
which they use the Windows version on.
