DOSBox v0.60

NOTE:

=====

|

While we hope that, one day, DosBox will run virtually all programs
|
||||
ever made for the PC...we are not there yet. At present, DosBox run on a 1
|
||||
Gigahertz PC is roughly the equivalent of a 16MHz 386 PC. While the 0.60
|
||||
release has added support for "protected mode" allowing for more complex and
|
||||
recent programs, but note that this support is early in development and
|
||||
nowhere near as complete as the support for 386 real-mode games (or
|
||||
earlier). Also note that "protected mode" games need substantially more
|
||||
resources and may require a much faster processor for you to run it properly
|
||||
in DosBox.
