Let me just correct something here so people unfamiliar with NT don't get
confused.

There is no DOS BOX under Windows NT because there is no DOS running in NT.
There is a command line box called Command Prompt that has as much in
common with Windows 98 MS-DOS7  window as a  F16 does with my Toyota
Truck.  NT Command Prompt  is a true 32 bit command line with none of the
limitations of DOS. A better comparison would be a UNIX console. You can do
just about anything from a NT Command Prompt....if you know the correct
command.
