Oh, I can fuddle my way there, but there's always a stumbling block. Which to me is just another app to learn the ropes of both it and DOS/Windows. So now I'm downloading and trying various flavors of PC/Windows emulators. And maybe using os9 Classic, which is in itself yet another layer of emulation. Things such as emulating a PC in order to run the ZX81 emulator.
It's a bit amazing sometimes the hoops to jump through to emulate an older and far simpler computer, such as the ZX81 et al. It kinda goes back to my earlier observation.
