dosemu2 is a virtual machine that allows you to run DOS programs under linux. It was started as an attempt to re-incarnate the famous dosemu project under GPLv2+ license (dosemu1 license is controversial), but have grown into an entirely new project with different ideas, goals and code. Also it has a much wider scope than dosemu1 had: instead of just being a virtual machine, we also develop our own 64-bit DOS

I dunno about the emulator, but this part seems pretty interesting:

Too bad there won't really be any native software written for it... its one piece of native software probably be its translating 16-bit code to 64-bit and running it...
