Message-ID: <1513@tharr.UUCP> Date: 16 Dec 90 20:51:09 GMT Reply-To: gtoal@tharr.UUCP (Graham Toal) Followup-To: comp.sys.acorn Organization: Public access to Usenet in the UK Lines: 17 I saw a sneak preview of a *new* 6502 emulator last week, -- not by Acorn, but I've been asked not to say by whom yet -- which is really superb: runs much faster than the Acorn one -- and *faster* than the BBC itself by a large chunk! The great thing is though that it has a command to configure the screen so that some part of it emulates one mode and the rest downwards emulates another. Why would you want this strange behaviour? ... you got it -- *Elite* :-) Only problem is its a little fast :-) Here's a vote from a Beeb fan to the author of the new emulator to get it out as soon as possible. I'm dying to play elite again... G -- (* Posted from tharr.uucp - Public Access Unix - +44 (234) 261804 *)
