PC/DOS-Emulator: DOSBox Version 0.58 for MorphOS
"DOSBox is a DOS-emulator using SDL for easy portability to different
platforms, DOSBox has already been ported to several different platforms,
such as Windows, BeOS, Linux, Mac OS X... DOSBox emulates a 286/386
realmode CPU, Directory FileSystem/XMS/EMS, a SoundBlaster card for
excellent sound compatibility with older games... You can "re-live"
the good old days with the help of DOSBox, it can run plenty of the
old classics that don't run on your new computer!"
DOSBox is an emulator which is, unlike Bochs, aimed at games that's
why it has good quality SoundBlaster emulation, joystick support,...
and unlike Bochs, DOSBox does NOT require the DOS nor a BIOS to run.
Please note that DOSBox still only emulate Real Mode: it basically
means that you'll be able to run most games/programs released before
1993-1994 (this includes great RPGs and a lot of 256 colors adventure
games which were never released on the Amiga). Almost every games
released after 1994 are running in Protected Mode: these games won't
work at all in current DOSBox.
