Ok here is a screenshot of my Compaq Armada 1750 running Ubuntu 5.04 running Win98se under Win4Lin running Damn Small Linux under QEMU. It runs very slow and serves no purpose other than the warm and fuzzy feeling I get when I got it to work.

Emulator stacking! Always fun. Try some older, easier-to-emulate systems for the final layers (something like a C64 would do). See how deep you can go! You get extra points for including more exotic systems.

Reminds me of a joke program I used to have on my good 'old Atari ST.

The program was called "Amiga.prg" and was supposed to be an Amiga emulator. You open it up,and it loaded an Atari ST emulator, then a dialog box came up which read "Running an emulator on a n emulator? This is getting weird" with the button reading "Nice Try"

:D

Man you guys have complicated setups! I wish I knew how to do that. I have WinXP but there are two old games I have that only run on Win95/98.
