Isn't the A64 emulator a product of Readysoft (the makers of AMAX)? That emulator has a serial cable that hooks up to the Amiga's parallel port and then hooks up to 1541 disk drives. The emulator works well, but it is not 100% emulation (maybe 80%-90%). -- ==================================================================== David Masterson Consilium, Inc.
