What I know about topics and forums
you could write on one side of a matchstick
in all capital letters.

And that is not very much.

Has a survey been done lately on how many
people run DHPOS through Windows
and how many run Straight Dos?

Hi chasmit

I altered your original post into a poll so we can get some stats from the visitors.

Hi there,

I've tested POS on everything except Windows Me!

The current installation at the Community Centre that I work voluntarily for is a Dell Optiplex GX1 PII/400 running Windows 2000 Pro.

I've got various hardware that I've tested POS successfully on:

2x Epson TM-T88III (i have both serial & parallel cards for testing)
1x Epson TM-H6000 (i have both serial & parallel cards for testing)
1x Star TSP-743 Serial - currently testing with new Aprint.
1x Preh Commander 128 PS/2 keyboard
1x Cashbases Slim Serial & RJ-11

Post-it note to try to attract new attention to old poll.

I (for the last summer) used FreeDOS, which worked quite well. It used a tiny image, booted within 2 seconds of when the POST was done, and was completely stable.

This year, it looks like I'm going to have to switch to MS-DOS to keep the stability but get the network features.

I run a store for a Boy Scout camp and am using some old hardware (IBM desktops with around 40mhz processors) that I found in the closet unused. I prefer DOS for my setup so it runs great on the old computers and the staff can't play games on it.

We use Windows XP :), I like Windows XP! the only problem is that darn Windows key where you can press and it goes into Windows and you can play games, SURF THE INTERNET DURING DOWNTIME, etc... I need to get into Windows cause my register does other things then just be a register, we use it to type up stuff and do other stuff and stuff... (I know it doesnt make sense) :)
