I don't think that *most* folks steal DOS. I would hope that *most*
folks get a version of DOS with their machines. While there are many
who steal later versions of DOS, I don't think that it is most. I
think it is pretty fair, they will accept ANY version of DOS, they
could have decided to accept only PC-DOS which is what they did with
1.x upgrades...
