From comp.sys.atari.st --------------------- ... A small German company showed a ST-emulator for the Commodore Amiga - and it works! Most of the standard-software is running nearly as fast as on a real ST. The QUICK INDEX benchmark reported a performance of 93 - 98 percent. The price: about 600 DM (< $300). The 'medusa'-emulator will be available in April for the Amiga 2000, a version for the smaller Amiga 500 a bit later. You have to use the original TOS, which is not included with the emulator board. But you get a program which reads the ATARI-ROMs and saves the OS on a disk. The medusa-board can emulate the STE, so perhaps it is the fastest way to get a STE in the US to buy an Amiga and install the medusa-module ... (just a joke !?).

They are DEAD, (bwahhh-ha-ha!!) so they don't count. Actually CP/M is mostly dead now also. There has to be a software base out there for the emulation to use before it's worth anything to bother writing the emulation in the first place. And I guess I should have left out the NeXT and Sun as they are workstations, not PC's. But all this emulation talk reminds me of an april fools article I read last year about a MacIntosh emulator for the Cray XMP. It was 99.9% NOPs in order to slow down the Cray enough to run the Mac software at normal speeds. >Alex C. Liu | INTERNET: acliu%skat@usc.edu -- John Sparks | D.I.S.K. 24hrs 2400bps.

[What's A line eater anyway...] Well all this talk about emulations i want a GOOD c64 emmulator. (A c64 Bridgecard!) The programs Go-64! and the 64-Emulater are just not up to par. each has it's good ppoints and bad, If someone combined the two then theer might be a "OK" 64 emulator. But i'm not going to hold my breath. Well if anyone has news about any 64 emulators send me some email. .

AND workbench at the same time? Be still my heart! What I want is a Plus-4 emulator, so we can put to work that plethora of Plus-4 software available. ;-} And how 'bout a Momenta emulator ("Momenta-lator")? Or FM-Towns, or MSX, or, or, Illiac-IV. . .
