Well, actually one of them is the Timex-Sinclair flavor retailed by our favorite cheap watch company on this side of the pond, with twice as much RAM -- a whole 2K!) Since the emulator your describe is PD, is there any chance that your could get ahold of a copy and send it to Steve Grimm at Panarthea? -- Bob Bright Dept. of Philosophy University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Man R3T 2N2 (204) 474-9680
