My sole reason:
Just go look at it right now.
A waste of space.

I disagree. It doesn't interfere, and some people may need it, even if it doesn't get a lot of traffic.
I right now don't see the use. Most of the people on this site use either XP or Linux which dont offer support worth a damn of DOS(Linux not at all).
I don't care either way...

Thanks for posting, then!Originally Posted by major_small
The DOS board will very likely be around for quite awhile longer.

I did have something to say about it, but I forgot by the time I got to the end of that one-liner...

the only time i started a thread there, it got moved to the windows forum bcause even though it was a console app, it was using windows.h
im pretty sure it will remain for beginners, i still do most of my programming on the console...i won't touch windows gui, i've worked with gtk a little. Other than that, I just do it on the console.
PHP and XML
Let's talk about SAX

A console app is not a DOS app. Its a Windows console. Almost nobody actually writes for DOS anymore.

I agree that the DOS board should be removed.

I'd vote to trash it.
For my default view on these boards I see the last 25 posts on each forum I look at. If I take a peek at DOS and scroll to the bottom of the page I see a post from 11-03-2003. Even using your wacky American date format (mmddyyyy not the vastly superior version that we in the UK use ddmmyyyy ) it's still pretty lame that it struggles to get 25 new posts in 6 months.
i barely even realized there was a DOS board. :d I guess it's just one of those boards kind of sitting there that nobody really notices because nothing is really JUST DOS specific anymore. Honestly, if someone has a question relating to something outputted in the DOS console, they tend to post it in the C++/C forum because that's where everyone starts out, working in the console.
So I guess I don't really see the purpose of having it there.
I agree, it's not really that useful if it barely gets any posts and you could just post your DOS programming questions in the tech board...
