Why wouldn’t you? Why not a later version, or every version? Wouldn’t you like to know the reasoning behind the decision for doing this with MS-DOS 4 specifically? It seems like they’re going through approximately each major revision but is that going to stop at 6.22 or will MS start releasing windows with win 1.0?
