For its time, it was a decent emulator. Modern emulators are much, much better however. Use only for curiosity purposes in [[DOSBox]]. It is not very [[Emulation Accuracy|accurate]] due to needing to run on much weaker systems than currently available.

Review

For its time, it was a decent emulator. Modern emulators are much, much better, however. It is not very accurate due to needing to run on much weaker systems than currently available. Use only for curiosity purposes in DOSBox.
