Why not a LInux version ?
Merel 469January 31, 2010
Pros
- Probably worthwhile for those people who have not be succesful trying other solutions. My old database still runs perfectly, evn with DOS version of Windows-Xp (and who knows, might even running with Windows7)
Cons
- Price - For Windows only - No Linux version (those users are leaving Windows). DOSbox (made for games) is the only DOS in Linux. It would have been nice to have a better solution than DOSbox. Maybe ExDos can run with Wine in Linux ?
Summary
To think about if you really need to run old DOS applications, and not succesful with other options. My rating does not reflect a judgement about the product itself, but a personal opinion (no test made so far) Considering the work done, I "hope" that my rating is about appropriate for the product itself. Updated on Jul 18, 2010The trial version I was testing was giving problems with my Azerty keyboard. After contacting Support, which was very fast to respond, a coorection was made and a new version was released for download. Meanwhile I had removed the previous version, but uninstall seems to leave quite a lot "leftovers". Anyway the new version did not seem to support Azerty keyboards as was announced. Only 2 languages are available : English and Hebrew.
Excellent solution for all DOS users
