i dont see why you couldnt play doom and other dos games

repeat after me: You will not play doom on a 5mhz machine. Even if it ran you wouldn't find a slut on this planet to suck more dick than playing it would.

I don't recall there being any such thing as a 186.

Whatever it was, it was a weak-ass computer from 1989 or so. :P The OS was Tandy DeskMate: Windows before Windows was even conceived. Those were the days...

What are the system requirements for MAME? Just think: That tower, a crappy old Sidewinder or two, and some plywood = home arcade!

a crappy old Sidewinder or two...

I have a Sidewinder and I still use it to play my ROMs. It's an excellent controller. I've never used another one that fits so ergonomically in my hands, and it has plenty of assignable buttons. Too bad the shoulder triggers aren't pressure sensitive.

The Gravis Gamepad... now there's a crappy old controller!

Use that old 486 to play DOS games.

I used to use Gravis Gamepads all the time...they seemed to work pretty damn well. Unfortunately, my dad was obsessed with them. He tried to configure every game we had to use them, even Doom. Yikes.
