From the "graphics card? don't need no graphics card dept":
"http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/6008?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=8086tiny-a-free-pc-xt-compatible-virtual-machineemulator-written-in-c"

The folks over on the Raspberry Pi blog point us to an interesting and 
useful project run by Adrian Cable: a virtual machine/PC emulator of the 
Intel 8086 CPU accurate enough to run AutoCAD, Lotus 1-2-3, and classic 
PC games.  The kicker?  It's 4043 bytes of highly condensed C code, 
nothing more.

Industrialists with apps that rely on old PCs, or even just fogeys 
interested in running WordPerfect 5.1 on their Raspberry Pis - you're all 
in luck.
