Hello Everyone:

      Help! I have another problem with MSDOS product. I heard that 
Microsoft sales release new version of MSDOS 5.0. Someone told me that
it will be retail product but I found out that MSDOS 5.0 still is not
retail product and upgrade-only version (required DOS 2.11 or later).
I unable to find *FULL* version of MSDOS 5.0. 

      I have ATonce emulator for my Amiga from Vortex gmH in Germany.
Its package do not come with MSDOS package and tell me to find *FULL*
version of MSDOS package in order to work with ATonce hardware. 

      Microsoft Sales told me that Vortex must have responsible for that.
Its policy require Vortex include MSDOS package with ATonce package.
But I *DON'T* like Microsoft policy for MSDOS pakages. Do not purchase
ATonce package unless Vortex include MSDOS package with ATonce hardware.
So I complain seriously aganist its policy.

      Where can I find full version of MSDOS 5.0? No upgrade products,
please!
