Alternate site


The danger lies not in the machine itself but in the user's failure to envision the full consequences of the instructions he gives to it.

Thanks for the alternative site. Really a shame that Microsoft cracked down on this one... Is DOS 7.10 still being worked on by the author or is it a dead/complete project?

I'm not sure at all that M$ is involved - it's my understanding that the site (like others) is down occasionally.

Wengier can better advise.

M$ is not involved at all (yes, I'm 100% sure). It's still a temporary server problem, although this time that server has been unavailable for 2-3 days. Hopefully the main site will be working soon.

P.S. If anyone knows of any other good/stable server so that I can host some DOS pages and files, please let me know, thanks.

Long Live DOS!

That server seems to be sort of interesting.


P.S. The MS-DOS 7.10 main site is currently working:
