Some of you may already knwo about this but it was new to me - Dos Box, a program that is designed to emulate a real DOS box so you can play games and such that were made in the DOS days under XP.

I've had this emulator for a long time now, and I really like. Not for running old apps but the old games. Now I can play Hotroad, Goblins, the old Prince of Persia and Commander Keen again, to name a few.
