How about creating a WIN98SE system, including your old fav. DOS (ugh)
software and writing it to a CD. Then set your super 1.999GHz pentium 5
whizbanger BIOS to boot from the CD. When you desire to play obsolete
stuff, boot to the cd, else, boot to the HD WIN XP OS.
Sounds like it might work to me.
Another thought...find a 486 or 233Mhz MX machine for 50 bux. Set it up as
a dos box and spring for a $10 ethernet card. Then net the box to ur brand
new cruncher and have the best. Variations on the above scenaria will also
work.
unkadean.
