Emulators

[Excellor8]

i guess this will never happen but i would like to see emulator software become legally available via DVD/CD over the counter. (wakes up with head in a bowl of cornflakes) :shock: :shock: :cry: :cry: :cry:

Not really up on Emu's lately, last one I tried was a PSX Emu, worked on certain games, was buggy and crashed on others, dont know if theyve come on a bit...but I'd say if software of any variety had issues, then it should be free as beta test versions, before any sort of price tag is introduced...

Are you listening M$ LOL... :lol:


mIGHTY... :wink:
p.s. No \"up on Emu's\" Comments please!

Was chatting to a friend about this last week... whilst trying to play worms in win XP.

Wondering whether anybody's yet come up with a windows 95 emulator?

[Belso]

We use Microsoft Virtual PC which is an excellent product.

Have SUSE 9.3, Mandrake, Windows 98, Windows 2000 installed.

Great for checking software compability. 8)

Was made free a while ago not sure if it still is.

So this allows emulation of alternative o/s from within e.g. XP?

Cool.

Will have to take a look.

Have a dual core set up (and a nifty bit of software called SMP seesaw, which allows processes to be isolated on a processor, so emulation could take place on a processor of its own) and am eager to see how speedily I can get some of the old classics to run!

Cheers for the quick reply. This should be fun.
