From the standpoint of the user, it makes no difference how it is 
implemented.  You are right, NewWave is a shell on top of Windows on top of 
the standard DOS file system; but functionally it acts like an 
object-oriented file system.
Down at the bottom, they're all just magnetic patterns on round, brown, 
spinning things.
