I just tried it in Dosbox, messing around with the settings a bit. It's definitely better than the last time I used it but still too slow and by far not as smooth as on the dedicated machine. It does make the game alot easier though, at this speed 🤣
Also I can not use both shift keys simultaneously, it will just ignore one of them. And there's a noticable delay between pressing the key and the flipper actually moving. And the vsync doesn't do anything. I don't think Dosbox is something for me...
Actually, the only time I ever seriously used Dosbox was to run the Transport Tycoon setup. It just refused to run on real dos, and I had to configure the sound devices in Dosbox and copy the config files over to the other machine 😀

🤣!
I only use 800x600 in games, mostly because of the 160Hz refresh rate. On the desktop I need 2048x1536, anything less and I start to feel claustrophobic 🤣
