1987 is about the time I stopped playing with computer games. I held on to my c128 as my primary computer up until 1998. In fact, one of the reasons that I bought my first PC ten years ago was the fact that I had just found out that it would run a c64 emulator.
As a result, I missed out on many of the old DOS games, excepting the ones that I got a chance to play at a friends' houses. In a way that's been good for me, as I can now go back through and play ten years of games that I had missed using dosbox. I have been working on a frontend program to help keep track of the games:
http://dosbox-pykde.berlios.de/
The application is in bad need of being updated, as it's set to work with an older version of dosbox, and they seem to change their configuration in drastic ways from release to release. I may spend some time getting it workable with a newer release of dosbox here shortly, as I feel a slight urge after reading these comments to try out some of the DOS games that I have missed out on.
BTW, I always wanted an Amiga, but could never afford one. I would've liked to see what it was like to use one of those.
