DOS (Disk Operating System) runs in a text-only mode. There is no mouse--all tasks are performed by text commands. GUI (Graphic User Interface) runs an artificial environment with many visual effects and controls. Modern computers all use GUIs, with a mouse and keyboard for input. An example of the difference is that in a GUI you would click the "X" button in the top right corner to close a program. In DOS, you would type in "exit" and press enter, or use some other exit command.
