Let me see if I have this straight.  The ST can emulate...

	* An ST (of course)
	* A Macintosh (black-and-white models only)
	* An IBM PC
	* An Atari 8-bit
	* An Apple ][ (running under the Atari 8-bit emulator)
	* A CPM machine
	* A Commodore 64 (I'm not sure about this one...)
	* A UNIX machine (via MINIX)

What's left?  Is anybody working on a CRAY-XMP emulator yet?  Oh, wait, that's
a UNIX machine now.  The VIC-20?  That was kinda superceded by the 64.  Ummm...
Amiga?  Anybody got an Amiga emulator?  Or a Nintendo? The programmable
calculators have been done already...
