Pocket DOS 1.10 with some VESA support is out!

The latest version of Pocket DOS, 1.10, is out. It's a very capable DOS emulator with tolerable emulation speed in XT emulation mode (but not in 386/486, unfortunately - there, it becomes unbearably slow and more of just 'proof of concept').

It, so far, has lacked the ability to use the 256 color VESA modes in 640x400, 640x480 & 640x200, which made it impossible to play some old SVGA games.
