Sure.... but I think what makes dos-based linux system attractive is that
you give people another reason do develop linux applications. You can run
the 32-bit binaries not only on linux but also in dos/windows; people will
just develop a single binary that works on almost all platforms. On the
other hand, this gives another reason to stick to dos/windows, you run can
linux binaries from there too. If we plan this right... it might go in
favor of linux.

golinux.exe! :)
