PuTTY

PuTTY is a free implementation of Telnet and SSH for Win32 and Unix platforms, along with an xterm terminal emulator. It also includes versions of sftp and scp.

Wine

Wine is an implementation of the Windows API on top of X and Unix. It does not require Microsoft Windows, but can use native Windows DLLs if they are available. It provides both a development toolkit for porting Windows source code to Unix as well as a program loader, allowing many unmodified Windows programs to run on x86 and x86_64 based Unixes.

DOSBox

DOSBox uses SDL to emulate the PC hardware required for running old DOS games. This includes a 386 processor, an S3/Trio video card with some tweaks to allow for older display hardware like the Tandy, a Sound Blaster Pro, the PC speaker, Tandy 3-sound, CMS/GameBlaster, Disney Sound Source, and MIDI. ... [More] DOS emulation is integrated. It is possible to mount local directories as drives inside the emulator. [Less]

MAME - Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator

Even though MAME allows people to enjoy the long-lost arcade games and even some newer ones, the main purpose of the project is to document the hardware (and software) of the arcade games. There are already many dead arcade boards, whose function has been brought to life in MAME. Being able to play ... [More] the games is just a nice side-effect. The huge success of MAME would not be possible without the talent of the programmers who joined to form the MAME team. At the moment, there are about 100 people on the team, but there is a large number of contributors outside the team too. Miodrag Milanovic is the current coordinator of the project. [Less]

ConEmu - Console Emulator

MESS is a MAME-based project which documents the hardware for a wide variety of (mostly vintage) computers, video game consoles, and calculators through software emulation, as MAME does for arcade games. As a nice side effect to this documentation, MESS allows software and games for these hardware ... [More] platforms to be run on modern PCs. The goal of MESS is total accuracy to the original hardware behaviour, which is achieved through low-level emulation of all hardware components (video chips, CPUs, etc.), the implementations of which are shared across all emulated systems using the generic MAME architecture.
