I have yet to discover the ideal, all-encompassing configuration/system that caters to the diverse eras of DOS gaming. To accommodate the early, mid, and late gaming periods, I resorted to utilizing multiple computers. However, this approach demanded a significant amount of space, which I no longer have in my compact new apartment. Consequently, I had to part with my cumbersome towers and seek space-efficient alternatives. To my pleasant surprise, I stumbled upon several laptop models that can suite my DOS gaming requirements (and even run those ultra CPU sensitive games like Ultima VII, Wing Commander, TD3 at playable speed). Additionally, with the escalating prices of desktop spare parts, these laptops suddenly appear as fantastic bargains.
I'm documenting and sharing my findings through my new channel
