... Circa 1996/1997. 2D titles, nothing overly fancy. I also found an old Windows 95 disc I've had lying around for just as long.
It's a really really stupid question, I know, but I haven't really been able to find a good answer to it - would something free like QEMU run this stuff acceptably on a G4 iBook, 933MHz, with 640MB RAM? It's no big deal if not, mind - I'm simply curious, more than anything else.

Interesting, never heard of QEMU when PC emulation is discussed. The titles would probably run fine under Virtual PC since they are old 2D games so they might run fairly well under QEMU if it's similar in speed to Virtual PC.

They're Windows games, not DOS ones (I think I mentioned that already  ). I already use (and love) DOSBox for playing DOS stuff. ^^;
