Just one question - There is no Ensoniq drivers for Windows 3.11, right? Because VMWare Fusion on macOS does not have SB16 emulation (but does emulate some kind of Ensoniq). Virtualbox does have SB16, but the sound is crackling. This is why I am still using it with DOSBox. https://www.vogons.org/ …

Okay, then try a mid-2012 13-inch Macbook Pro. You can find them today for about $300 used. Just add 16mb. ram ( $80 ) New battery ( $50 ) and 500gb SSD ( $75 ) So for about $600 you can have a very good laptop that can dual boot OSX and Win-10. I have this same setup but I don't even use it …

Congrats on your new acquisition! I’ve tried the newer macbooks and the new keyboards are really a pain in the ass. I work on a macbook pro 15” from 2012, and the keyboard is quite decent to work on. As for the operating system, I’d recommend to dual boot win/linux, if you need linux for something. …

I did kill an Acer Extensa 710T after it was forgotten by me and my dad for 25 years. The extensa was our first ever laptop. Running Windows 95, internet access. It was in a so bad condition, like if it was made of sand. Every touch was breaking every part of it, except the keyboard - it was in a …

I think it is. I was given a compiled 64bit version on their github page to test last year. Boxer hasn’t been updated since then, I stopped using it when macOS Mojave came, and when I wanted to use NE2000 patch (boxer doesn’t have it).

Thanks alot Codeholio for making DOSBox-x. After using 0.82.4 for long time I decided too try the newest version. I then discovered that the Drive option was missing from the menu bar. Actually it's been missing since 0.82.7 2018-06-01 13:05. Why did you removed that feature? I use it for one game …

There's actually an IRC/Discord bridge out there. I think more than one. One of the channels on Freenode I am in uses one. “Bridge”? I’ve been out for years, doing karting and simracing, and I missed a lot of things. What is a Discord/IRC Bridge? In this case, it's a bot for the IRC channel and the …

Setting up a Discord and IRC channel sounds like the best of both worlds for the people here. I will be on IRC ofc, because I used it a lot in my days and I would like to enjoy it again.

I used the floppy disk icon from pages ago to create a shortcut to launch. Pretty neat.

NT 4 and 3.5 (client and server) both work within virtualbox. You'll need to sort out video and sound drivers yourself because vbox addons aren't available for an OS older than Windows 2000 but it can be done. My host is macOS Mojave. Both Virtualbox and Vmware Fusion have issues with sound. Vmware …
