I came across an article recently letting people know they could play MS DOS games in their browser. Now I'm not really a games person as I enjoy using technology to create rather than play. Having said that most of us have played games over the years so I decided to investigate.

I decided to pick PACMAN and yes it played as expected and yes I died as expected. There's a huge selection of games and I'm sure you'll spot a favourite or two. May be worth checking out.
For many years I really was a bit of a stick-in-the-mud. I'd even remove games from computers I'd install so they wouldn't affect the productivity of staff. However once I saw the joy people got from playing the games, and often playing games also enabled them to gain better skills at using the computer, I softened a bit. But gee, it's really easy to fritter away time playing games so be warned.
