    MS-DOS 2.0 on the Apple IIe (March 2026)

    An Apple II enthusiast ported MS-DOS 2.0 to an Apple IIe running an ALF AD8088 Plus 8088 card (a much simpler device than the PC Transporter) designed for CP/M-86.

    It boot, supports 80-columns, reads the clock, reads disk data from a shared ProDOS file on the IIe's hard disk.

    Stated plans from the author, Seth Kushniryk, include Super Serial and Uthernet II support as well as running CP/M-80 on MS-DOS on ProDOS with a V20 swapped in for the 8088.
