If anyone here remembers CP/M, and remembers the low-level calls to the OS ("call 0005"), it's very clear that MS-DOS is a clone of CP/M (look at the values you'd load into registers before calling the OS).
I've never seen 86-DOS/QDOS, but I've seen MS-DOS (which, I believe, is admittedly derived from 86/Q-DOS). MS-DOS is clearly derived from CP/M, meaning (IMO) that 86/Q-DOS are derived from CP/M.
(If you've never programmed for CP/M, then you're too young, and can't really comment on the subject, IMO)
Anyway from what I have read due to some of the security measures in the X-Box the bios was patched using the XDK
There's no need to own/use the XDK in order to patch the Xbox's BIOS. Just use my (plug) 'xbflash' utility to unpack the KERNEL from the BIOS image, 'poke' bytes into the kernel, then re-pack with xbflash again.

How about: any site that makes you sticky?
