Maybe we should also mention in that FAQ the scope of ScummVM (graphical adventures), and add a link to dosbox...

I was going to mention DOSBox as well! That runs pretty much anything from early/mid-90s remarkably well on a decent enough computer now.

From what I've heard, it's a bit outside the scope of ScummVM. The Free in the Dark project seems more likely, though as far as I know that one has been dormant for the past two years or so.
