I am getting a new 486 and Gateway will install either Dos 3.3 or
4.01 at my option. With an 80M HD it would be nice to avoid having
C, D and E drives using Dos 4.01. But I remember that a while ago
people shied away from 4.01 because it was reputed to be buggy. Is
this still the case, and should I stick with tried and true 3.3?

Thanks in advance

Neal
