Since MS-DOS isn't even a remote consideration for most people these days, the numerous differences between them have no direct bearing on what operating system they choose to use. Sort of like how the difference between a donkey and a 2010 Cadillac Escalade doesn't impact what vehicle people choose to purchase.
