It's been hiding...
 It got licenced to caldera, Novell, (and poroibably others)

It's been available at no cost as Caldera OpenDos, and also as a component of
Novell Personal Netware.

I had been using dos extensively here and about 6 months ago grabbed a copy
of personal netware (I didn't get round to setting up the netware side of
it though) about two months ago I switched all my fido stuff to linux and
have only booted native dos a few times since then, and dos-emu a few
times...

I thought I might miss 4dos, but no.
