Hey, that should be MS-DOS... Microsoft didn't invent DOSes at all...
Just a little history:
D.O.S. = Disk Operating System
In the 'age' that computers only had RAM and ROM (much like our Ti's)
people started to invent all sorts of external storage devices. These
needed a special way of communicating with (much like communication with
the LCD-driver-chip), some routines (I/O, formating, disk-stats) glued
together with some nice text interface formed a so called DOS.
