We both know that the C64 emulators available for the Amiga are crap. If they're not too slow, they foul up the programs. Also, the problem of emulating the SID chip hasn't been tackled (in an emulator... I've seen it done in a demo). What would be nice would be a 64 on a board for the Amiga. We've already got IBMs, Mac, and Unix systems running off the Amiga, so why not a 64? ----------------------------------------------------------///\---------- Crunch @ Heart of Gold BBS (814) 238-9633 /// \ crunch@hogbbs.scol.pa.us \\\///----\ (814) 353-9489 \XX/ \ MIGA ------------------------------------------------------------------------ TARDIS Express: When it absolutely, positively has to be there yesterday. ------------------------------------------------------------------------
