Try this one....Run the non-native version of softwindows on a Powermac 
(step 1 and 2 cause the powermac is emulating a 040).  Run Executor (step 
3) run SoftWindos again (step 4) run the C64 emulator (step 5) run the 
CPM emulator (step 6)  Now you have the equivalent of a 1MHz 8088 running 
CPM or a 486dx/25 running Win95!
