As for multiple computer platforms mess is better.
Though I personally find it better to get indivuals emulators usually though Mame is great asrcade machines and Fusion is good for sega machines.
If Mirosoft can't beat dos box for dos emulation no one will. I go with the best and leave the rest behind.

ScummVM is not really an emulator nor even a VM. It's a re-make for modern platforms of several game engines (for DOS).

I'm not a big user of SCUMMVM. Even before I had Dosbox, I preferred different ways of getting those games to work. ScummVM is a bit like Exult for Ultima VII: it's not an emulator but rather a re-write of the game's engine. I prefer an authentic experience over the ScummVM experience. For many people it won't make a difference and Dosbox is still harder to use than ScummVM but if you when it to be authentic, Dosbox still beats ScummVM by far.

[_r.u.s.s.]

well the games that are supported are pixel to pixel authentic

Is supported games faster in ScummVM, than in DOSBox? I always played in native DOS or in DOSBox, so I even do not know what ScummVM able to do. I guess supported games are more tested than in DOSBox?
I decided to use DOSBox, because it seemed more universal, despite of that I had to read a manual and make tries to set it up. But in the end it was fun without big problems. I know some people do not like to read manuals, but life is easier and less problematical, so it is not a wasted time, if you try to read them...

So I vote for DOsBox, but I'd like to know what people think about the other alternatives...

[_r.u.s.s.]

of course it's universal and once you get the game running i don't think you can get any "faster" speed since it's all adventures. well, theoretically speaking, yes scummvm is of course faster
