I've been following Box86/64 and it's amazing how far it's come. Now we just need some proper reasonably priced ARM workstations.

#12I am loving the increased focus on RISC-V.
As ARM, like x86, is now a legacy ISA.

#13Took me a moment to realize this isn't related to 86Box, the low level hardware emulator.
Cool project though. We needed something like this in Linux.

#14I remember using Box86 to play some old DOS games on Windows around 20 years ago. But other than that experience I don't know much about it. I only see it mentioned somehow more lately. What differentiates Box64 from i.e. QEMU?

Box64 has the narrower scope of being the fastest possible x86-64 to {ARM64, RISC-V} userspace emulator for typical applications like games. QEMU is focused on both system and application level emulation across all sorts of architectures and use cases, with a focus on absolute accuracy where possible.
