[net.micro.atari16] No ms-dos emulation yet.

frans@duvel.UUCP (Frans Meulenbroeks) (04/12/86)

I had a quick peek at the Atari booth in Hannover the other day.
They were not showing the ms-dos cartridge/emalator yet, which was
rumoured to be there. They said they expected it in june.
Price unknown.

The booth was a small one, with atari giving away brochures, and some
people, supposedly from small companies, showing some stuff on ST's.
I've seen someone playing with habacad, someone playing with musical
apparatus via the MIDI interface, someone with a CCD camera and a printer
connected to the ST, and someone with stuff for industrial automation.

However, no shocking innovations.

Not quite true, they have shown a prototype of a MSDOS-Emulator
(not PCDOS). It comes with an 8MHz 808[86], 512KB ram (useable
as RAM-Disk from TOS) and MSDOS 2.11 (not sure about this).

The emulator should be ready for delivery fall '86.
