- Hi,
-
- I'm writing an Apple 2 Emulator for the Amiga, which emulates a 48K
- Apple 2 with two disk drives. Only the text page can be displayed
- until now. It is in "alpha test" state, i.e. it works, it doesn't
- crash, but some nice features are missing.
-
- It runs BASIC programs at about 1/10 the speed of an original Apple 2.
- Disk access can be as slow as 1/60 of an original Apple 2. So you have to
- be patient when booting. This may take 5-6 minutes.
-
- The disk drives are also emulated, i.e. you don't connect directly your
- Apple 2 disk drives to the Amiga. You can use your Apple 2 to tranfer the
- contents of a floppy to the Amiga. On the Amiga you can use the floppy
- for reading and writeing, but at the moment it is not possible to save
- back a floppy.
-
- If you are interested to take a look at it, you can download it from
- ftp.eunet.ch [146.228.10.15]. You'll find it in the /software/amiga
- directory.
-
- If you download it, then please tell me, what you think about it.
-
- Thank you
