My system is my home PC.  I do have ~10-15 users that dial in but only I
have access to VP/ix.  The dial in users are mostly Usenet readers.  They
have their own home PCs and their own wordprocessing software.  Since
DOS software is cheaper (and what I am forced to use at work), I put
up with the few abnormalities of VP/ix.

Unix will never have the market share of dos because:
1.  System administration/installation is far too complex for the ordinary
    MS-DOS user.
2.  MS-DOS software is generally *much* less expensive.
