There is no sense in which MS-DOS died in 2000.
- coldtea 8y agoI guess the parent means when (NT-Kernel based) Windows XP replaced Windows ME, which was the last version to run on top of MS-DOS (iirc).
- japanoise 8y agoWikipedia lists the last release of MS-DOS as version 8.0 in 2000, linking to the page for Windows ME. This is what the comments above were alluding to, a "final release" before the project is abandoned. Installations still continue, in the same way there's probably places still doing the books on a C64, but it's no longer supported.
