Line 245 ⟶ 250:
A more revisionist view is that there's a family of disk operating systems for IBM PC compatibles, and one of those is MS-DOS. The collective name for this family is "DOS." Complicating things is that "DOS" is both a general acronym for [[disk operating system]] and within various communities it's shorthand for a particular system's DOS (e.g., [[Atari DOS]], [[Commodore DOS]]).
 
I used to go out of my way to replace DOS with MS-DOS, but I no longer do this, even though theThe DOS slang feels more and more incorrect as time goes by.
