Has anyone come up with the idea of writing a Macintosh emulator for the
SUN3. It shouldn't be too difficult since the CPU is the same.  A friend
of mine started on it, but found that you must run SUN OS 4.0 'cause you
need to map page 0 in the memory, and that can't be done with OS 3.0.  If
there does exist a program that includes software for copying the ROMs,
could someone send it to me?  I would enjoy running Macintosh on the SUN's
'020 and a 19-inch screen with a lot of virtual memory and a large quota
on my filesystem.  The emulator should perhaps keep all the Mac files in
one single SUN file (I really don't know though).

By the way, is this a stupid question?
