Whoops, I broke my HP 200LX.. I'll have to get it repaired before I can re-open this project.
NOTE TO SELF - Maybe try to get a 96 MB upgrade. What did I have?
This is just a placeholder page for now.

2006-06-12 -- I still have my HP 200LX which I adore but just haven't been using.

A DOS emulation program.
Absolutely essential for emulating DOS not just within Windows or a traditional Linux environment, but within ARM/Linux as well, for palmtops and phones.

Linux distributions + Unity Linux >
Oldschool Linux was to have been usable as a general-purpose light Linux distribution, with a focus on oldschool platform and operating system emulation/virtualization, demos, games, art and music.
Its target era was to be pre-Windows: DOS, Commodore 64, Amiga, Atari, etc. Software will be Linux-native where possible, but two-stage software will be examined .. such as emulating DOS to run a DOS program.
Games (Free, not abandonware - either platform-specific, console or arcade games)
It was to be a consumer distribution, and not a producer distribution. To be distributed with media viewers/players as well as actual content. It was to be a branch off of the Unity Linux base. It never made it past the planning stages.
Oldschool-Windows and producer editions were far-future ideas.
This topic is dead! It'll stay dead. Vanilla DOS and the internet just don't go well together. Linux with DOSEMU, a VMWare solution, or whatever, would allow a contemporary networking experience while still allowing DOS compatibility.
DOS and networking has some serious issues, namely the lack of memory it leaves. Some DOS-alternates help alleviate this though.
more coming later
This topic is primarily for MS-DOS 6.22, though I was particularly keen on 4DOS.
