I don't understand why somebody couldn't come up with essentially the same thing for a current operating system.  I never owned a C-64, but as primitive as it was by today's standards replication of Doctor DX would seem possible if there were enough people interested in it.  I suspect that the issue is that there isn't.

Does anyone have a comprehensive description of what it was capable of and how it worked?

If you never sat in front of Dr. DX, you will never appreciate what
everyone else is talking about.

It was way ahead of it's time (at least compared to what is out there now).
