It's too low in RAM and storage as well as having battery issues. Oh, and the screen is a weird size, and it's really underpowered. I mean, the world was a different place back then. It's not a big a deal now, but it's still (vaguely) cool. Something like the PoquetPC is probably more impressive (although I admit I never tried either). Who knows, maybe a Sharp Zaurus can run DOSEMU? But whenever you hear people doing such, it's usually for games. (Doesn't the GP2X or whatever have a partial DOSBox port?)
