That's exactly what DOSBox does, the latter just focuses on hardware from the DOS era. Well, and contains an MS-DOS clone.

I'll take a guess that PCem is like almost any other virtual machine and does not include any OS by itself and as such will never really be suitable as a "DOSBox rival".
DOSBox emulates an entire machine from the DOSBox era, that includes all the hardware components.

To quote the introduction to DOSBox' Wiki article: "DOSBox is an emulator program that emulates an IBM PC compatible computer running a DOS operating system. Many IBM PC compatible graphics and sound cards are also emulated." And: "DOSBox is a full CPU emulator".

Thank you. My post has been edited to reflect this :-)

I suppose the biggest difference is that DOSBox emulates an OS, while PCeM does not.

GOGdoors?

Btw, Dosbox will be hard to dethrone by now.

For DOS games, this isn't an issue.

For the BIOS, use SeaBIOS. For the OS, use FreeDOS. Both are Free Software and Open Source, and therefore can legally be distributed by GOG.com.

(It's worth noting that SeaBIOS is LGPL3, which I believe would be a problem if distributed on a closed platform like iOS, but is no issue for the platforms gog.com supports.)

Whats the reason to fight over box label, if content does what is advertized?

OP, thank you very much for rising awareness!

Dosbox frontend DBGL includes a lot of profiles to "limit" and "tune" DOSbox configuration to specific hardware, but its not DOSBox is not a virtual machine, but an emulator. So, if this thing is basically Bochs with firmware+profiles, it would be splendid. Its always hard to tune the games to run exactly as they were used to run.

Gogdors. Instead of Trogdor.

*Sigh*... We are goglodytes, not gogdors. When will these kids learn...

Hey, I thought I'd try something different.

I.. prefer "goggers" however.
Goglodytes suggests stupid primitives :P

Which was the intention when I first used it (and do note I always use it with "we" and "us", not "you" or "they"). Derived from troglodyte.

I knew obviously.. how could it suggests primitives otherwise? :P
Anyway, even if the term is funny, I still prefer the less derogative (and shorter) goggers.
No problem, though!

So does this work on non-DOS Windows 95 games that won't normally work with Windows 7 and up?

The screenshots appear to suggest that may be so.

Hahaha, reminds me of this, but in a fun sense of it.
You can install Linux, the Wine (free winapi re-implementation) should run all games. PlayonLinux allows to assign multiple versions of wine. Its like ... installing Dosbox, since the internal Dos subsystem has drastically changed and does not cut it, like its done with whole windows compatibility thing, which weaves away over time because MS thinks its not necessary. Not so, with free-licensed emulator or API which other consider useful. Perhaps, some time a pervert thing happens and Wine will be ported to Windows...
