Hi, As a matter of interest, I managed to have some success with a DecTalk USB connected to a USB-to-serial adaptor in DosBox. It was clunky, though, so I really would suggest Dosemu in Linux as a better solution at this point. If something more useable is found, I’m all ears, though. There were some great DOS games which haven’t been duplicated.
