Both Prince of Persia games were designed to be finished in one sitting, so you only needed to save if you had something important going on

As a kid I didn't really have that problem, so not knowing about saving for so long doesn't really bother me.

DosBox is dos machine emulator. A front end is a program that will save you trouble configuring it, if you want.

I don't think it is, but some disagree. It maybe is a bit tough because it's more complex than a console emulator, so
