About to embark on getting Renegade DOS v1.33 up and running on ArcaOS.

Never used OS/2 during the 90’s bit was always curious about its DOS capabilities (“does DOS better than DOS”).

It also has a legal version of Windows 3.1 included, and some support for Windows 32 native apps. I figured at the very least I’ll need Perl to run the telnet sever that’s out there, or maybe Net2BBS will run.

Anyone use ArcaOS for BBSing? I know Mystic BBS had a native version at one point.

Biggest downside to trial is there is no trial version - $129 even to mess around with it.
