AI overview

DOS (Disk Operating System) is an older computer operating system that used a text-based command line instead of graphical windows, and it was the standard system for personal computers in the 1980s and early 1990s. It matters historically because it was foundational to personal computing, and versions like MS-DOS became widely used before graphical systems like Windows took over.

Het acroniem DOS staat voor disk operating system, oftewel een besturingssysteem voor apparaten met schijfstations (diskdrives). Bij de opkomst van computers met diskette was het handig om na de opstartcyclus (boot-strap) een commando-processor en hulpprogramma's te laden.
