The latest version of SoftPC due to be released in a few weeks
runs in less memory, is supposed to be faster (a little), and
costs less than the earlier version.

I have the old version and an order for the new version.  For
a few casual applications, its fine.  If you are going to do
some serious MSDOS, I recommend a coprocessor.

You get CGA emulation which is probably not suitable for CAD.

It really is 100% PC compatible (everything runs).

You get a little less than XT performance on a MAC II.
