jaclaz Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 (edited) Actually, FreeDOS is not freeware, it is Free Software. Neither is it just free for personal use, it is free for commercial use or whatever.I wasn't referring specifically to Freedos:But there are several "alternate" DOSes that are either freeware or free for personal use.however you may want to tell this to the Freedos Authors:http://www.freedos.org/Welcome to FreeDOSFreeDOS is a free DOS-compatible operating system for IBM-PC compatible systems.If an operating system is software, calling Freedos "freeware" does not seem inaccurate to me. If you meant that it is both "free" (thus "freeware") and "Open Source", you are correct. jaclaz Edited November 18, 2008 by jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weEvil Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Abandonware is software that is no longer sold or supported. That doesn't mean you are free to distribute or sell it. Should the company want to re-release it at some point, you would be taking from their profits.Because there's such a huge market for Windows 3.11 now.
