Re: Mac on PC



Here in comp.emulators.mac.executor, bonzo@wolsi.com (Bonzo)
spake unto us, saying:

Since nobody else has managed to provide this functionality even WITH
Apple code, much less without (as ARDI has done), I seriously question
the term "joke" in your assessment.

You have a better solution?  For under US$100?

SoftWindows uses BIOS code and Windows code licensed from the various
vendors.  Executor does not.  FWIW, Executor appears able to run a
significant number of the shareware apps I've run under it.  A far
cry from your above description.
