I am running 25 year old dBase IV applications in DOSBOX and they seem
to think I am still running DOS. The only thing I am missing is the

There are still a lot of "text" things you can do in DOS that Windows
can't do.
I believe Virtual PC on Win7 Professional, running XP, can run just
about anything that requires DOS in the backround.
