- You will, I promise. However, I also need more input.

- I'll probably regret this, but...
-
- I have a fairly portable, and largely incomplete, dos-emulator in
- ftp.scri.fsu.edu:~ftp/pub/hudgens. It needs alot of work, is a tad
- slow (300 Dhrystones/sec on a SS1+), still is "batch mode only", and
- has been dormant for at least 4 months now. Sadly enough, these
- things are a *bitch* to debug. The only thing stable about mine is
- that the 8088 part is fairly close to being at the "no known bugs"
- stage. The emulation of DOS really sucks. Of course, I guess that's
- what you get emulating DOS :-). It still doesn't boot DOS; too much
- is missing.
-
- I've heard of at least 3 other dos- or pc- emulators available.
- If you have trouble finding these others, let me know, I probably
- have their messages archived somewhere. One was Tanenbaum's
- 8088 emulator for testing minix.
