I remember somebody (Terry Lambert?) mentioned a couple of months ago that 
he has SCO emulation running, but can't release the code, cause it has
some not public stuff in it. Would be great!!! (correct me if i'm wrong)

On the other hand i don't realy understand why on earth would one want to
run DOS/Windows under NetBSD. I don't think that it would be so fast/compatible
that serious work could be done under it. (Ready, steady, flame!)
