   Windows - GUI DOS - CUI.
   Windows - 32bit O.S and Dos is 16 bit O.S.
   Windows - multithreading and multitasking O.S but Dos is stranger to these concepts.

   Traditional dos programming is procedural, meaning that your program starts at one place, and steps through the code sequentially.

   Windows programming is event-based, meaning that each time an event (like a button-click) occurs, a handler is invoked to produce a responce. The difference can be fustrating, since in event-driven code you can inadvertantly have several functions running simultaneously on the same data.
