The DOSBox project is now in the Top 50 most downloaded projects of all space and time with just over two and a half million downloads! Congrats DOSBox team! 😀
wohoe
Nice! I bet it'd jump up at least another 10+ places if another official release came out, as many people (like me) are currently using CVS builds for better compatability.
Dosbox will probably make the news everywhere if they release a new version 😁
I doubt it 😀

How to ask questions the smart way!
It will definitely make news on emulator sites and many underground tech news sites. You'd be surprised how many people know about it.

This deserves to be on the official DOSBox site somewhere. Or perhaps accessible via a secret shell command in the program itself. Surely something with as long and colorful a history as DOSBox deserves an Easter Egg right? 😁
Reminds of my gf's brother the other day. He moved and I had to help lugg his stuff around. He kept a lot of old useless hardware which made no sense to me.
He told me he was keeping it for the eventuality that he would like to set up an old Dos computer. I told him about Dosboxbut he replied that he "heard" that a lot of games wouldn't work on it. Unfortunately I had not much time to set him right, but as I told him I had Windows 95 running on aspecial built, it made him pause a bit 😀
I don't remember hearing that anyone got Win95 working yet - are there any threads about it?
search the forums hunterZ
The support isn't very likely to get in the cvs though.

To answer my own question:
booting Windows 95 - Really :)
Precise page faults (dynamic/full core)
4,167,673 @ #41. Wow.
So in 10 months it jumped 1.6+ million downloads?
Triple it and it'll be close to beating ZSNES. If that ever happens then I'll know the world is really messed up (or sourceforge stats are screwy).

Going to be interesting to see how popular the next ver of Dosbox is going to be.
Qbix, any word on the easter egg? 😉
It's secret.
heh. Going to dig through the source tonight....
The only program i actually like in the top 50 list is dosbox. I still think Dosbox should have been a product available in stores. You would be able to make a lot of money with dosbox and yet it's freeware.
If the devs wanted they could charge for it. Nothing stopping them either. In fact I'd bet that's what they'd probably do if they started doing more with DosBox than supporting games.
