-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Interesting. I've found that DOS and linux, (at least when running in the text console, without x), was quite useable under bochs, and I might still even be using it for that, if dosemu, and user-mode-linux weren't available. The time that bochs really dragged was when I put win95 on it, along with wineyes, to see how it did. The install of win95 was possible to get through with a great deal of patience and time, but once it played the M$ sound, until the time it was ready to use, was about 15 minutes, and I'm not exaggerating that either, I timed it. Even when it was ready, the speech from wineyes coming through the sound card was so choppy and delayed, (even after playing with the bochs sound settings), that you couldn't tell what it was saying, unless you knew by heart what it was going to say when you did something. I also found that the alt, tab, and windows keys weren't useable, making things even more difficult.

Qemu seems to be at least useable. - -- web site: http://www.romuald.net.eu.org gpg public key: http://www.romuald.net.eu.org/pubkey.asc skype: gregn1 (authorization required, add me to your contacts list first) - -- Free domains: http://www.eu.org/ or mail dns-manager at EU.org -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFEsceI7s9z/XlyUyARAvXtAJ4lVpieUdVMJBfCryVP+eBQkVNRSQCeJzHF QCLxe7Tpv5+SzvE67uOKfBs= =fHwm -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
