How about a new, or used, version of Transformer. Wasn't great ( I heard RUMOUR ALERT!! that the original creators, Simile Systems, who should be ashamed of themselves, and C-A had a dispute about the release of a better version. Commodore insisted that the better version should be free because the released version was incomplete, while Simile insisted on getting paid more money for an "upgrade". I side with C-A on this one ), but since all I needed was a limited amount of DOS memory, and no graphics, it got me through a couple of semesters, running dBase and a couple of other applications. By the way, any more interest on the net for a real software emulator? -- * Dan Taylor * The opinions expressed are my own, and in no way * * dlt@locus.com * reflect those of Locus Computing Corporation. *
