Gladly.

DOS takes up WAY less RAM than Windows or MAC OS(no virtual disk
needed!), so things run WAY faster! It is also more stable than Windows
or MAC OS.  Boot up time is a lot less(well, OnNow may fix that for win
:) too. If you are a programmer, it is a lot easier to access hardware
through DOS (Microsoft tried, poorly, to fix this with DirectX for
Windows, but no one liked it), so more games are for DOS.

And yes, the OS was designed in the '70s, but that doesn't mean that they
didn't update it! In fact, they completely re-wrote DOS for Windows 95.

Don't get me wrong, I like Macs, I just don't see any proof to your
arguments.
