The solution I can recommend is to download Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 (which is free), and install DOS on a virtual machine.

If you don't have a copy of the old M.S DOS, you can try Freedos.

Dos box is great for just things like this ( http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/news.php?show_news=1 ) you'll get best performance with a tool like that. A virtual machine is another option but I would suggest the free version of VMWare over Virtual PC.

Oracle takes over Primavera Software

www.EmploymentCrossing.com Oracle announced it is acquiring a major project management software supplier, Primavera Software of Bala Cynwyd (balla kenwood), Pennsylvania. No price was set on the deal, expected to close later this year. An Oracle spokesperson said the Redwood City, California software giant was making the acquisition to tailor project management toward such industries as engineering, construction, aerospace, defense, utilities, oil and gas, manufacturing, and professional services. "Enterprise project portfolio management is moving to the forefront of business strategy for industries that are managing complex and capital intensive projects," Oracle president Charles Phillips said in a statement announcing the acquisition.
