Unless you crack the free limited trial version using a crack at
astalavista.box.sk........ ;)

DOSEmu is good, but I would suggest that you use another version of dos
like pc-dos or dr-dos rather than the default Free-dos that comes with
it...IMHO it is very unstable and caused a lot of FAT corruption on my
disk image...the "DOS-C version 1.0.2 Compatibility level 3.31" is the
offender... 

On the subject of Emulators, WINE is getting really great, I can run
Mortal Komabt 4, delta force 2, Caesar 3 on WINE.....
