Plex86 is not dead yet. If you look the savannah home page you'll note
that you can find patches to "nearly current" bochs devices at
http://cbothamy.free.fr/projects/plex86/patches/

These patches apply cleanly to plex86 cvs. You'll get :
  - boot from cdrom
  - foreign keyboard keymapping
  - VBE support (not complete yet in Bochs)
  - PCI plugin (not complete yet in Bochs)
  - sb16 plugin (not currently working)
  - ne2k plugin (not tested)
  - 16 bits dma functions
  - sdl gui
  - and many bugfixes.

Some of these still need changes that are being worked on.
