Re: Nice demo, but why does it die?



I stand corrected.  Given that I've only seen the demo version my perceptions
were somewhat off.  I was not aware of the fact that you also were writing a 
compatible version of the Mac OS in addition to doing the ROMs.
 
I'm was not trying to trivialize the task of making a Mac emulator by any means.
 
Cloning an OS is not an easy task and I never said it was.  I've seen the 
problems that Digital Research has with staying compatible with MS-DOS and I'm
sure the Mac OS is an order of magnitude more difficult, at least.
 
I also forgot to take into account how much is documented in the low level 
hardware and software of the NeXT, basically it's not really available. I should
have thought about that especially since I had major problems getting my A/D and
AES/EBU digital box working on the NeXT.
 
I think that Executor is a good product and will probably order a copy in the 
near future when one of the applications that I need on the list becomes 
supported.
