Ugh!

You picked some of the most 'dirty' programs I know of.
FlightSimulator does not run even on a ST with HyperCache. (16Mhz 68000)
This is propably due to some timing loops which run too fast now.
PC Ditto heavily depends on the 68000 processor and hardware. I'll be
*very* surprised if it runs without problems.

I figured out that the TT (T^2 is really nicer :-) is very TOS compatible but
some software isn't :-) :-)
