The best, (is it the only?) Dos emulator never found anything it couldn't handle and the GUI's such as boxer make this the one-stop-shop for all your DOS needs.
It's wonderfull

Unfortunately, wakoopa does not track dosbox under linux.
it is a utility.
memorable interface!
I use it only for school :P!
Great tool!! (But not for the Mac, as described in the title.)
Great app that lets me play games that were made before I was born! :D
dosBox is a virtualization of MSDOS, that allows you to run a huge amount of apps that you used to play with back on those old good days... I have rediscovered games like Duke Nukem 3D, Alone in the Dark and King's Quest thanks to this app. Really good!
Awesome for Dungeon Keeper!
This application is also available for Linux.
The thing I am missing is the ability to print to a Windows USB printer. My accountant is still working on a fast DOS accounting package. (no games there) :)
Anyone been able to resolve that?
Have you ever seen this error message when you wanted to toggle a MS-DOS application to full-screen mode in windows Vista or Windows 7:
"This system does not support fullscreen mode" ?
By using DOSBox you can easily overcome this error! Great!
It is also available under Linux (but not listed under this platform).
P.S. Really good emulator, helps me a lot!
