Ahh, but there is a difference.  When you choose Restart in MS-DOS mode,
all your really doing is running a shell without most(that is MOST) of
Windows 95 not running.  You're still in a shell though.  Type exit and
you'll see that it goes right back into W95.  Now if you go and boot up
with command prompt only, you have to type win to get it started and exit
doesn't do anything.
