I installed it this morning to respond to Aitor's email. The last time I ran FreeDOS until VirtualBox for anything serious, I recall that DOS GUI performance was about the same as under VMWare Workstation. It's ok, not that great. Performance will be better for DOS graphics under DOSEmu (if you run Linux) which is what I use for FreeDOS almost all the time. -jh - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ ___ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel

What about speed of graphical dos programs under virtualbox on WinXP?

[Freedos-devel] Virtualization made in Sun Microsystems
Hello, Maybe you know it already, but it seems that Sun have launched their own virtualisation software: http://www.sun.com/software/products/virtualbox/get.jsp It was completely new to me, but I was wondering if someone has tried FreeDOS there already. Cheers!
