   Bzzzzt! Thank you for playing. Windoze 95 is MS-DOS 7.0 and Windoze
4.0 on top of that, with MS-DOG set to run Windoze normally, no 'win'
needed from autoexec.bat. However, you can hit 'F8' on boot (when it
says 'Starting Windoze 95...'' on the text scren) and not start
Windoze. There are also plenty of things you can do do make it not
start windoze by default.

   The other contentions, that GS/OS has less of a builtin shell than
Windoze is much more true.
