DOS was structured such that there was a separation between the system specific device driver code ( IO.SYS) and the DOS kernel ( MSDOS.SYS). One major reason for this was that not all early PCs were 100% IBM PC compatible. Microsoft originally sold MS-DOS only to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). CP/M faded, with MS-DOS and PC DOS becoming the marketed operating system for PCs and PC compatibles. Side-by-side, CP/M cost US$200 more than PC DOS, and sales were low. IBM responded by offering an agreement: they would give PC consumers a choice of PC DOS or CP/M-86, Kildall's 8086 version. Digital Research became aware that an operating system similar to CP/M was being sold by IBM (under the same name that IBM insisted upon for CP/M), and threatened legal action. IBM continued to develop their version, PC DOS, for the IBM PC. Microsoft later required the use of the MS-DOS name, with the exception of the IBM variant. Within a year Microsoft licensed MS-DOS to over 70 other companies, which supplied the operating system for their own hardware, sometimes under their own names. This became Microsoft Disk Operating System, MS-DOS, introduced in 1981. Microsoft purchased 86-DOS, allegedly for US$50,000. The system was initially named QDOS (Quick and Dirty Operating System), before being made commercially available as 86-DOS. There, programmer Tim Paterson had developed a variant of CP/M-80, intended as an internal product for testing SCP's new 16-bit Intel 8086 CPU card for the S-100 bus. Gates in turn approached Seattle Computer Products. This will unlock the hatch leading there, and the staging area is where you'll find the Magic Mirror.IBM again approached Bill Gates. Behind the statue is the Ghetto's kitchen, where you'll learn about the Arena of Fort Joy by talking to Noosey. Simply head towards the Fort Joy Ghetto, then go south towards the waypoint statue.
It's relatively near the beginning of the game, making it easier and faster to access. It doesn't simply break immersion and place it in the open, though. Things included in it can be enabled through the menu screen, including the Fort Joy Magic Mirror.
You'll do so by enabling Gift Bag # 2's goodies, which was a free update that came with the announcement of the Switch version of Divinity: Original Sin II. The second way to unlock it, and it's arguably the easier way. Later on, the ship becomes inaccessible, but the Mirror can still be found at the Hall of Echoes and can be teleported to. On its lower deck is the Magic Mirror, and you can go to it pretty much right away. At the beginning of Act II, your character will board a ship called Lady Vengeance. The regular way is by progressing through the story.
