- An MS Windows emulator for the Mac has been posted to
- sumex-aim.stanford.edu. It's available by anonymous ftp filed as:
-
- /info-mac/game/window-3.hqx
-
- It is not sluggish at all, and it works about as well as the real Windows
- in my experience. You do get an error message or crash now and then.
-
- Give it a try--but don't expect too much. Note the directory in which it
- is filed....
