Does anyone know how to copy a disk image, such as the ones that are
found on the Apple ftp site to a disk? I tried the suggested disk copy
utility on that same site, but it would not run: it told me "You cannot
run this program on this type of Macintosh" (at least Executor had the
program fooled that much! <g>)

Can SoftWindows currently run in executor?

Unless Executor emulates a power mac chip as well.

Heya guys and gal,

Two things --

 1. Photoshop - what is the status of it, we haven't heard for a while

 2. News group as support mechanism is problematic

    I have just spent 30 minutes going through my news reader picking
    the threads I want to read and skipping all the posts about mac
    vs executor, linux vs dos etc.

   My time is valuable to me, I bought the product before it worked
   for my needs, because I wanted to support you.  Now that I have to
   spend time wading through insipid flames and questions that are
   answered in the faq to get support, my fondness for Ardi is dropping.

   Another mailing list for either registered users, or for advanced
   questions is not that CPU and bandwith intensive.  Can we please do
   something?

Once again, I really do think ARDI is a great company, and any thing
you can do to help will be appreciated.

mike

And compared to a 286, SoftWindows is fast.  The Mac II came out in
1987.  That's approaching nine years old; saying Executor outperforms
the Mac II series is not likely to impress many people.

Now, if you were to say something like "Executor's 680x0 emulation is
almost on par with the original Apple emulator in PowerPC Macs"--which
is almost the case since my friend's P120 running Executor is nealy as
fast as my PMac 7100/66 when running 680x0 code--then maybe more people
would be impressed :-).  Connectix Speed Doubler's emulator and Apple's
newer emulator are both much faster than Executor though.

Drawing on my fine command of the language, I said nothing.

If I can do so (as a french person), you probably can also.
