Well, you could always go the way the Macintosh Emulator has gone...Atari has recently upgraded their TOS to V1.4, and has been releasing ROMs (well, EPROMS, actually) with their latest TOS. put them in a box similar to the AMAX box and Voila! Then it's just a matter of reading them into memory, patching what needs to be patched and popping an ST disk into the drive. Who knows...you might even be able to make it multitask. :-) Lance -- +-------------------------+ +------------------------------------------+ | Lance T Franklin | | "And all who heard should see them there, | ltf@attctc.DALLAS.TX.US | | And all should cry, Beware!
