Title: DOSBox 0.60 released! YEE HAW, BITCHES!

For those who don't know, this is the best emulator IMO for running old unsupported DOS games in XP.

It's still in basic stages, but it's taking shape very quickly.

And this version says it has protected mode support.. which should hopefully now mean it can play old games, and not just really ancient games.
A few more versions and this should be the solution to all us 2000/xp user's dos problems.

Can you use VDMSound and DOSBox together?  If so, WOOT WOOT!

PS. Obviously a joke.  OBVIOUSLY! (I'm an idiot)

Just press Ctrl+F8 to increase the frameskip to 1 or 2, which should smooth it out (though the graphics don't update so often).
