OS mashup
I am trying to get RDS to run on a tablet PC.
I can not run win 98 to run directly I can run Linux Mint on it... I am looking for a good Linux Mint / Win 98 emulator... Any help appreciated

As no-one else has suggested anything. I'll offer this...
If the tablet is running some sort of arm processor then you are going to find it nigh on impossible. If it's running some sort of mobile 'wintel' processor then you may (just may) be able to run some form of Windows directly on it. if not then you might see if WINE (bacronym for: Wine Is Not an Emulator) is 1) built for the hardware you are using and 2) can run RDS. but I very much doubt it. (WINE is the closest you'll get to an 'emulator' to run windows software in Linux). The other option is to see if there is a hypervisor (software that runs virtual machines) available for Linux Mint on that hardware and then run a virtual machine running windows 98 and then run RDS within that. By far the easiest method for running on something relatively lightweight and portable would be to use an old 14" laptop with a new battery, and either run Windows 98 directly or some later version running either in compatibility mode or again using a hypervisor and virtual machines.
