Yeah I've heard of RDOS and X <something>DOS. I have virtual PC 2007 and dosbox
does work. I still like SIMh the best.

None of the SIMH emulators emulate a machine MS/DOS would run on. There are
other operating systems called DOS (disk operating system) that have nothing to
do with MS/DOS. Many of the SIMH emulators will run one of these DOS operating
systems.
DOS may run on a VM using vmware, under emulation by, BOCHS, dosbox, boxer
etc.

The thing is I don't know the emulators well enough to know which one(s) do
or don't do that. I've only used say three of them and never Altair. Vax,
PDP-11 and PDP-8.

Emulating a 5-slot PC or 8-slot PC/XT so that you can run actual MS/DOS
would be closer to the SIMH way.

I personally think simh is one of the highest quality simulator
systems you can get. Do any of the emulators like altair or so emulate MS DOS
of any version? Or can they? If not might it in the future?
