Most of us have an old laptop or three lying around gathering dust. Don't scrap them! Upcycle them.
In this video I'll show you how to turn a very low powered, 900MHz, 2009, netbook into a top of the range DOS gaming PC. We'll use DOSBox running on top of a lite version of Linux to give full speed emulation and full sound - something I couldn't get with a pure DOS approach in the previous video.
Play all the classic games such as Doom, Lemmings, Wing Commander, Duke Nukem and all the rest and bring your old hardware back to life.
Make sure to check out my project page for all the code and links used in this video.
