Has anyone tried DosBox with their Pocket PC to play old DOS games? Impressions, compatibility, performance?

I have tried a few games I got Simcity and Warcraft 1 working.
They are playable. Hell I got Win 95 to boot :p

Awesome, what was the performance like? Do you have to do anything to get it to run in the right resolution? This could open up a new avenue for gaming on the go.

They work for me. It was hard at first getting them running decent.
I have to overclock to 530mhz for Warcraft to be playable. Check out
this thread. LINK

If you like the old LucasArts adventure games, they make a SCUMMVM client for Pocket PC that works great.

yeah, SCUMM is on my list. The place I tried to download it from last time was not working. As far as old DOS games, what about PocketDOS?
