Linux has an available DOS emulator that is pretty successful running old DOS
apps.  For Windows apps there is the emulator called Wine.  I'm unsure if anyone
has yet succeeded in getting GPL up & running with it yet, but I know some FPS
such as HalfLife, Sin, & Unreal have been successfully set up in Linux.  For more
info along these lines try here:  http://www.linuxgames.com  For more generalized
Linux news & info:  http://www.linux.com

Hope this helps some!

The box said "Windows 95 or better", so I installed LINUX!
