I just bought a Zenith AT, with MSDOS 3.1, it came with VDISK.SYS.  Microsoft
is not at fault if you do not have VDISK, it is the company who made the
licence agreement with Microsoft that is at fault.  MSDOS varies quite widely
amongst the different machines that support DOS.  For instance, the DOS
backup command works very different if you bought a Corona, when comared to
a Zenith, and when compared to a real IBMPC.
