Want to explore what MS-DOS was like back in the day? You can still do so with FreeDOS.
This past June 29 marked the 30th anniversary of FreeDOS, the text-based operating system by American developer Jim Hall that carries on the tradition of the classic and iconic MS-DOS.
In fact, development of FreeDOS continues to this day, although the latest version (1.3) is two years old at this point. TechSpot reports that version 1.4 is currently in the works, though, and will primarily focus on bug fixes and updated tools.
Looking beyond that, Jim Hall says that full support for Windows 3.1 and Windows 3.11 may be on the horizon for FreeDOS, as this has been the number one request from users for a while.
FreeDOS works well on most older computers, so if you want to play around with old programs and classic games, give it a try.
