For general purpose use--not games--which program is better, in these
respects: handles more DOS programs; more easily accessible to
peripherals, like diskdrives, including floppies; less complicated to
get working; less complicated to use. Would either one run Win 95 or
Win 98,
if required? (And if I could still find the disks!) Comments solicited
on the questions I forgot to ask. (No, don't ask "why." The answer is
technical programs that have no Linux counterpart.)
The computer on which I would use it has an AMD Sempron running at 1500
MHz, 2 GB ram, and an EVGA AGP video card with 528 MB ram.
Thanx--doug
