I occassionally will find a video where someone is using a GPU board to
"simulate" (is that the right word?) a DOS machine.  They are usually doing
it for gaming.  I sometimes wonder if there are any with an actual RS232
serial port that could be used for some BBSing purpose.

I usually lose interest when I realize that I could just use an old
machine, if I don't mind it heating the room in the Summer, or don't mind
that I cannot use nfs networking to access my network shares on a DOS
machine.
