Windows Emulation

I got my 3400c to run a Windows 95 emulator, in the hopes of playing some older PC-only games.

The oldest copy of Virtual PC I could get ahold of was Virtual PC 4, which still requires a G3. So I had to look elsewhere. I found a product called Blue Label Power Emulator, which is cheap, and has a free demo!

I installed it on the 3400c, and got Windows 95 to install from the CD drive and boot!

The Windows 95 emulator is not as slow as I expected it, and is actually somewhat useable, although of coures not as sprightly as a real PC.
