  Would you call Unix a "modern operating system"? It was originally developed
in 1969, and as wikipedia puts it, "Unix was designed to be portable,
multi-tasking and multi-user in a time-sharing configuration."

  But if you like, we could settle with: MS-DOS is not an operating system
by modern standards.
