-  This section briefly describes the peculiarities of using Emacs under
-the MS-DOS ``operating system'' (also known as ``MS-DOG'').  If you
-build Emacs for MS-DOS, the binary will also run on Windows 3.X, Windows
-NT, Windows 9X/ME, Windows 2000, or OS/2 as a DOS application; the
-information in this chapter applies for all of those systems, if you use
-an Emacs that was built for MS-DOS.

-  Note that it is possible to build Emacs specifically for Windows NT/2K
-or Windows 9X/ME.  If you do that, most of this chapter does not apply;
-instead, you get behavior much closer to what is documented in the rest
-of the manual, including support for long file names, multiple frames,
-scroll bars, mouse menus, and subprocesses.  However, the section on
-text files and binary files does still apply.  There are also two
-sections at the end of this chapter which apply specifically for the
-Windows version.
+  However, if you want to use Emacs on Windows, you would normally
+build Emacs specifically for Windows.  If you do that, most of this
+chapter does not apply; instead, you get behavior much closer to what
+is documented in the rest of the manual, including support for long
+file names, multiple frames, scroll bars, mouse menus, and
+subprocesses.  However, the section on text files and binary files
+does still apply.  There are also two sections at the end of this
