Check the Links page.

There's XU4 (an exult-like project for Ultima 4) and Nuvie (an exult-like project for Ultima 6.) Both of these projects still have a way to go before they are complete however (especially Nuvie.)

I believe Avatarship, a remake of U4 using NWN, is complete. Check out www.lyrac.net for it.

You can use dosbox to run any of the older ultimas, I am not sure how Ultima 6 works though

I've had no problems running Ultima VI in DosBox on a MacOSX machine. Also seems to run Ultima V fine.

There were problems with Ultima IV though.

The best way to run the ultimas is use VDMsound (they have also a beta release for win98 and I have managed to run u7 in it without problems)

You mean the best way if you are trying to run them under Windows :-)
But U7 and U8 don't run well (U8 has problems with sfx and U7dpmi is just starting to be bearable with a P4 2,6 GHz) and along with the Underworlds need a patch to be "runable" at all.
Dosbox is the way to go in the future for all supported OS'. Ultima 1-6, Worlds of Ultima, Underworld 1+2 already run on it.
