You can buy a Euro import of Normality for less than $10. It's worth it for that price, definitely.
The point? The point is that I want to play DOS games. The frontend makes that a lot easier since I'm spending less time fiddling with a command line and more time actually playing games. Plus I can input data about what year the game came out, who made it, what genre it's from, and even browse images from the games that I've saved. I know exactly what game I'm about to play before I even boot it up, even if it's one that I don't play very often.
And I can actually rename all my folders to the name of the game, instead of some abbreviated title or smashed together title that takes extra time to type out.
Quote:DOS itself though, that I don't mind at all... I used DOS for years, it's a pretty easy OS to use as long as you know how to do things. If I'm playing DOS games, I like having to get to them through DOS... doing it through some Windows shell would be cheating, and kind of beside the point besides.

Sometimes you get the scorpion.
