Tried it. Won't work with my system setup. Annoying, but eh.

And the problem is not only sound but the fact that it only emulates 
DOS, and it is not actually DOS. And that it disalows direct hardware 
calls for function, which most older emulators absolutely rely on.

No, it's not twitch in the FPS sense of the word. You need to be able 
to put out a sustained effort for long games (the longest internet 
game of TA I payed ran for 2 1/2 hours. The longest LAN game for more 
like 3).
