All true. But it plays a lot of games, can output to MUNT for mt-32 emulation and supports CRT pixel shaders if you use unofficial builds like the ones here:

So I still use it for playing my old Sierra adventure games.

MESS MAME can do a lot of this too and as time goes on will only do more. So that's what I will probably replace dosbox with. Eventually.
