   Did (MS|PC)-DOS 2.x support hard drives?  If it did, did it support file   
   systems larger than 32 MB?  (I don't remember when the features were added.)   
      
   I know that the underlying features required for networking and CD-ROM   
   support (which abuses the networking feature) were added in DOS 3.x.   
   Hence why you see DOS 3.x as the minimum requirement on a lot of things.
