    A quick look downstairs shows that I have a complete copy of DOS 1.1.
According to "Upgrading and Repairing PCs 4th Ed.", PC-DOS was versioned as
follows:

                                         <------------------------- File
Sizes ------------------------------>
Ver. File Dates Command.Com IBMBIO.COM IBMDOS.COM
=== ======== ============ =========== ===========
1.0 8/4/81 3231 bytes 1920 bytes
6400 bytes
1.1 5/7/82 4959 bytes 1920 bytes
6400 bytes

    According to other charts, there were no differences in the available
internal and external commands, so I don't readily understand the difference
in the command interpreter file sizes (patches??)

    I'm sure that I can find some way to get you the 1.1 diskette.
