Re: Dos Emulator

The memory limits in DOS still apply under Linux, although you
may gain some by not having to load all kinds of drivers, etc.

I have more success in using the speech for Linux under DOS (I have
used speakup quite successfully), although a lot of apps don't run, so I 
wouldn't rely on such a thing too much.

When I tried to run Vocalize, it didn't work well at all, particularly
the keyboard stuff -- although I haven't tried this under the latest
version.
