Talley) Newsgroups: comp.sys.mac Subject: Running MS-DOS on Macs (Please, no flames) Message-ID: <111@bodo.UUCP> Date: 22 Feb 88 21:58:49 GMT Distribution: na Organization: The Ohio State University, Computer-Based Instruction Group Lines: 18 Keywords: IBM, 8086 emulation, DOS I'm looking for information on existing schemes for running MS-DOS software on Macintosh computers particularly the Macintosh II. I have heard of various hardware and software solutions and I would like to hear from people who are using these products. I am specifically interested in: cost, speed, CGA/EGA emulation, and general robustness of the product. I am someone who wants the Mac II that may soon arrive on my desk, but has to provide support for an existing base of MS-DOS software, so the ability to run OS/2 (OS|2?) is not that important right now. Please send your responses by e-mail and I will summarize to the net if there is sufficient interest.
