      I have a few programs that say Win95 but are actually running in DOS. You could try DOSBox. http://www.dosbox.com/comp_list.php?letter=a

      For DOS games (or even Windows 3.1 programs), just use DOSBox. For anything else, I use Parallels (on Mac).

      I use Oracle VM VirtualBox

      I found this list of (apparently) the top 5 best alternatives to VirtualBox.

      It is true. This video by The Gaming Historian sums it up perfectly.

      Valentine's Day is one of those "stupid" holidays. If it was a real holiday, government and federal workers would get it off.

      And I was so rich I was able to hire people to kill everyone that ever made fun of me. (Director's cut)

  12. Just got the call, my kids will have tomorrow off from school. This will make three days in a row. It's nice to have a longer Chistmas break, but with the extreme wind chill it's way to cold to enjoy the snow.

      Longer Christmas breaks mean shorter summer breaks.

      That's why we have video games.

      I don't remember getting entire days off from grade school due to cold weather. Snow, yes, but just cold...nah

       

  13. It will be so nice to actually be a productive member of society again. I start a new job in the new year. I'll be teaching at Baker College's Transportation Technology Center in Flint, MI in their Small Engine and Powersports program.

      Awesome. Will you have your students buy Craftsman or Snap-On?

      Neither. The school supplies all tools while you're there. Besides I only promote the C.H. Ina tool company. LOL!

      Harbor Freight rocks. lol. My dad taught a transmission course at a local vo-tech school. He loved it. Young people are like sponges.

  14. Well I survived the ice storm, but have been without power since 7:30 am Sunday. Currently sitting at a local Mcd's in order to borrow the wi fi. The power company said power should be back on some time on Friday. Merry Christmas to me.
