Any network admin worth his salt has an old win98 system tucked away that can be used to create bootable dos cd's. And if your really a wizard you have a windows for workgroups 3.11 system tucked away as there are devices (notably HP JetDirect print servers) that can only be firmware-updated from that platform, plus you have a genuine DOS system with an EGA card and monitor in inventory, like I do. ;-) I'm sure one of these days I'll need it for something... The ultimate guru's of course, have in addition to this, a trash-80, an Apple II, a Commodore PET, and a VAX 11/70 plus the 3-phase power to run it - and still remember how to boot all of them....
