Games on N800
 
Hello to all!

And before i launch into anything id like to say that ive read a lot about the N800 since becoming aware of it while i was offshore.
The communication side of the N800 is perfect for what i want (as i only use my current laptop as a comms PC anyway) and im sure i can get a basic Office suit running (gently editing excel spreadsheets etc.) but what really excites me is that i can get to play some games with the N800 through the DOSBox program.

My question is how good is the performance on the N800 with DOSBox and will i be able to run such gaming beauties as "Settlers 2" and any of the early "C&C games" (up to and including Red Alert 1)?
From what ive seen and read on this forum there dosent seem to be any RTS games avaliable however i was thinking that if i can get DOSBox running on the N800 (apparently possible) i should then be able to run one of my favorite old skool RTS games. Civ 1 from what ive read is possible so that covers one aspect of my gaming needs.

Ive hunted through the forum archive for a few weeks now and have been unable to find any of the information that ive wanted so i hope that one of you guys/girls know the answers.

Many thanks
