I've been using SoftPC for a while, now.  It accurately emulates a PC/XT,
but I have run into some programs which will NOT run properly.  The first
is DESQVIEW.  According to Insignia Solutions, DESQVIEW is "not a 
well-behaved program" and don't intend to support it.  The second is
a terminal emulator specific to my company.  The third is Generic CADD -
it will run, but you cannot use the mouse emulation (at least, I haven't
been able to get it to work).

For the most part, I am satisfied with SoftPC and am not sorry I
purchased it.  The above problems are really annoyances to me, but may
be a real headache to someone who really wants to use SoftPC for them.
