I've heard that there is an MS-DOS emulation mode on the SS1 so that you
can run MS-DOS applications on this machine.  The speed of the emulation
is said to be approximately that of an 8MHz AT.

Does anybody have information on this ?  Does anybody know how good the
emulation is, i.e. which programs will run on the SS1 and which will not ?
Any comments welcome.

Please E-mail to me, i'll summarize if there is enough interest.
