  • DOSBOX on Android Gingerbread

    From Kurt Weiske@1:218/700 to All on Fri Nov 15 07:03:00 2019
    All,

    I have an old 7 inch Craig Netbook (it's a CLP281, they were common several years back as a cheap netbook at department stores when netbooks were common...)

    Decent screen and battery life for something so small, passable keyboard,
    and it's tiny. It's got a 32 GB SD card in it, so lots of room for music. Movies don't play too well.

    It's running an old version of Android (2.2 Froyo), it's so old it comes
    with "Android Market", the old incarnation of the Play Store.

    I'd like to find a copy of DOSBOX that I could sideload onto it, and use it
    as my traveling QWK node - and a point, if the Android point software would run under that old a version of Android.

    Any suggestions?

    ... What do you think of the guests?
