Software Emulators
Randall,
If you are going to invest in a new system, you should look into some of
the Hardware DOS options for the 500, namely the AT-ONCE plus(notice the
plus), the POwer PC board, and I believe that GVP makes one which fits into
their 500 harddrive.. All support VGA monochrome, one or two support 16
color VGA, and speed is, as far as these things go, decent..especially the
AT once plus which runs at 16 mhz.. It is much more convenient than having
an entire new computer, and saves ALOT of space; which can be a factor..
The only problem is that none of these emulators(and if it is an emulator
or simulator is not important right now) is that you do not have the option
of adding sound or video cards(or any other cards). All do or will in the
VERY near future support Hard Disk partitions..
…Just thought I would let you have my two cents worth..
