    Of course, there's also the possibility of getting an old Compaq Presario and a 17" CRT if space isn't an issue...

    It is. I've got a spare quad core 32bit computer in the back I could throw XP on but I have nowhere to set that up.

    I think paying the $3 for dosbox turbo may be a good choice. No windows junk, but DOS games would be very doable. I saw this one writeup saying that the tablet I have would be like the equal of a Pentium75mhz with the emulation overhead.
