Hello all,

Well... I just acquired myself a copy of Relentless: Twinsen's Adventure
along with a bunch of other "retro" or "classic" games.  (Bioforge, Full
Throttle, X-com, etc.)  I've played all these games before (other than
Relentless) but this was back before I had Win95.  It's been so long since
I've even NEEDED to use a DOS prompt.

Anyways... I was wondering, what would be the best way to enjoy my new "old"
games?  Boot disks?  DOS partitions?  Dos Mode?

any help would be greatly appreciated

many thanks,
michael
