Only it's free, and it's available for most platforms and operating
systems (Mac, Linux, Win32, Amiga, etc.). I installed my copy of MS-DOS
6.22, which was around in the bad ol' days of Windows 3.1, and it runs
most of my old software just fine. I wonder if SW 4.4 only uses CGA or
EGA graphics,in which case I may need a separate BIOS ROM file.

Cheers,

Dan.

PS: Bochs is at https://bochs.sourceforge.net
