Many months ago, when I last looked at your DOS timeline, it did not include
Wendin DOS.  Recently, when cleaning my apartment, I found a letter from Wendin
postmarked Oct 9, 1987.  A copy of the letter is included below.

Additional information about Wendin DOS can be found at:

    http://www.gensw.com/pages/about/stevej.htm

That page describes the efforts of Steve Jones, president and chief technical
officer of General Software.  That company produces Embedded DOS-ROM, "a
micro-footprint ROMmable MS-DOS workalike operating system".
