Well.....at least we don't have to worry about answering too many posts....
 
I'm wondering if the Vista release will spark some interest in the forums again but considering that the betas have been out for quite some time....and there hasn't been any posts here, I don't think the Vista release will do anything except for mabye a minor surge of people who post asking for help and then leave again.
 
I also haven't been too turned on by Vista anyways since I've mostly been working and Ubuntu has got me more excited than yet another retread of the same old NT....
 
 
These forums are geared more towards getting applications/games to work in Windows/Linux which like most such sites doesn't lend itself well to alot of posters....so perhaps there should be a general gaming forum or.....something?

Yeah I have been using DOSBox for the old DOS applications, its just 16-bit Windows games that don't work like Ski Free or Chip's Challenge...basically that 16-bit Entertainment Pack that came out for Windows 3.1. I can use the emulation layer with Virtual PC....I just don't see why the need, is there anyway to get 16-bit emulation working on x64? Or getting the NTVDM working somehow and then getting the program working on top it? If somebody ever did, that would be quite awesome, even some of those 16-bit installers annoy me because the actual program is 32-bit. Eg. Jedi Knight: Dark Forces 2 (requires manual install)
