This is a CD with various tools and utilities to run Acorn and RISC OS programs on other systems including Apple, Linux and Windows PC.

Of particular interest are three hardware emulators enabling you to run RISC OS on a PC, including the freeware version the Red Squirrel emulator. Note that this is not the commercial version of Red Squirrel.
