  > > 	Has anyone out there tried Descent under dosemu?

After my original post, I decided to try it.  Descent under Dosemu on my
DX4/100 is about as fast as running it under DOS on my DX2/66 system.

Not only does Descent run, but so does DOOM, DOOMII and Heretic.  As well
as the Watcom 10.0a compiler, but not the linker (dang!).

However, don't try to run Descent on a DX2/66 under Dosemu.  It is way slow!

p.s. I was using the lastest version of Dosemu that I could find on
ftp://tsx-11.mit.edu/pub/linux/ALPHA/dosemu/Development (or something like
that).
