Not the giant leap forward that 0.70 was, but nonetheless, Huzzah!

I messed around with it on my PPC Macs. I got it to work, but it was too slow to be useful. BTW here are the specs of each machine:
G4 1.2 GHz
1.25 GB RAM
OSX 10.3.9
Dual Processor G5 2.0 GHz
2 GB RAM
OSX 10.4.9
Not sure if I'm doing anything wrong, but it runs like molasses.
0.70 introduced a remarkable speed improvement. Perhaps you were using an older version?

DOSBox .70 works great on the newer Intel Macs but its a pain in the butt to configure. None of the frontends are up to snuff yet. I usually just fire up WinXP in VM or Bootcamp and run DOSBox that way, works everytime.
Glad to see a new version to try out.
Tried it out with D.O.G. front-end under Windows Vista (64-bit). Works great.
Speed issues are adjustable as long as you have a newer machine. Probably depends on the game though.
ive got .63 still.
I hope they make dosbox compatible with Magic Carpet 2 and the sound compatible in master of magic.
Edit: Hmmm.. apparently they did

Ditto. Real easy to get working on the PC side. There also has been several good gui-based frontends on the PC side, sometimes it take a little tweaking to get a frontend like dfend to work with new, updated versions of DosBox but the forums are great for getting config tips.
