KingofGnG writes "DOSBox, the emulator designed to run DOS games on modern operating systems (and not necessarily on a PC), has been chosen as project of the month for May on SourceForge. It's the latest award granted to a piece of software that 'simply does what it is supposed to do,' as the authors say. After having amassed more than 10 millions downloads, it will soon be getting an update that's been awaited for almost two years."http://games.slashdot.org/slashdot-it.pl?from=rss&op=image&style=h0&sid=09/05/11/0042256 (http://games.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/05/11/0042256&from=rss)

An update to DOSbox this month? Score! This is easily one of my favorite applications ever.

I'm pretty big on DOSBox myself. I have to get my old school Doom and Duke Nukem fix about once a year or so.

Hopefully the PSP version gets worked on afterwards and gets some sortof speed increase. I only emulate on my PSP.
