Well, I know that making Windows 3.1 work in a browser has been done as there's a website out there with a ton of browser-based VMs that I found during my search for stuff. But I'm unsure if it could run on top of DOSBox. Still, I'll look into this as it may be my best option. I would certainly prefer it, at least.

Is there a good version of DOSBox for ChromeOS though? I know there's the Chrome browser version, but that doesn't seem like it would be capable of managing to run Windows 3.1. I'm expecting at this point to have to use a VM of some sort, unless there's a version of DOSBox that works natively on Chromebook, in which case I can just use that.

Ah, right, yes. Perfect, thank you. I was trying to find that information somewhere and couldn't. Much appreciated.

Hello, Spiderweb friends. I'm looking to play the Exile Trilogy on my Chromebook, as I'm eager for a blast from the past, and I specifically want to play these games and not any newer versions of the games. However, for obvious reasons, it's not entirely clear what I would need to play them on a Chromebook. My current Chromebook is this model HP - 2-in-1 14" Wide Ultra XGA Touch-Screen Chromebook Plus Laptop - Intel Core i3 - 8GB Memory - 256GB SSD And running the latest version of a 64-bit ChromeOS. I'm aware I can use DOSBox as a basis, but I also recall that the Exile Trilogy was primarily Windows based, and as such, I'm uncertain which version of Windows I could install onto a VM to run them. Is Windows 3.1 sufficient, or do I need Windows 95? And is it possible to do this in a way that allows me to switch between the game and other activities, allowing me to multitask? Thanks ahead of time for any assistance.

Even decapitation is harder to successfully do than you think. Often in executions that involved decapitations, there would be multiple cuts needed to entirely sever the head from the body. Hence the invention of the guillotine, to prevent such messy mistakes.

I always thought that the intro music to Avernum II was the best meself.

How about playable Goblins? Just a thought.

Jeff's previous games were not, so I don't think you can just attribute increased sales to his new simplified style, when steam alone has opened him up to a much bigger market. That's not what she said though. She wasn't attributing the increased sales to a simplified style--she was saying the simplified style didn't affect or harm sales. Significant difference between the two statements.

The protests originally started in Tunisia, over a fruit cart that was all the owner had, that was his life for many years--the figure I usually hear is twenty--being burned and destroyed by police for no real reason. It was then filmed on a cellphone and uploaded to the internet. The internet is really the cause of why these spread so far and so quickly. It's so hard these days to keep the sort of state censorship and crackdown on the spread of information and ideas that dictatorships across the world--particularly in the Middle East--are so used to, and they're struggling to catch up. Without easy internet access, that little event would have gone down like so many others: important to the man involved, to what little he had for family, and that's about it. With the internet, it became the spark that lit the fire of Middle Eastern revolution.

In Avernum you also generally fight fewer enemies in a group than you do in Exile.

Is that why solid state discs have much lower storage space capacity?

The problem with having more party members is that there's just plain more to deal with. More to buy, more to sell, more time spent in each battle controlling each character...it can get quite hectic. It's resulted in me neglecting several characters in numerous RPGs, both JRPG and Western, where I'd just pick a few and stick with them over anyone else because it was simpler and easier that way. (Final Fantasy XII is one of the most recent that comes to mind, though in my playthrough of the International Zodiac Job System version I found it a lot easier to use all six people since each one was so specific, and thus more useful than six complete blanks.) At the same time...there is something nice about having more people around, even if you don't use them, because it feels...good somehow. Not quite sure how to describe it. Almost like you're more powerful. Final Fantasy VI...I've played that a couple of times, and I don't think I could ever do the World of Ruin without going around and getting everybody, even if I didn't use some of them. (Mog, Umaro, I'm lookin' at you guys. Or rather, not, because I never use you.) So I can see both sides to this issue. Still, if it's easier for Jeff to balance four people, I'd say stick with four. It's enough people, really.

I don't want to offend anybody I don't know personally, but I just have a hard time understanding how someone could have a mild form of a debilitating mental disorder. How could you tell the difference? Psychological analysis by several therapists. I also have Borderline Personality Disorder.
