  29. Sorry, I am not an Amiga user and don't know much about these programs.
  30. Are they software only or did they use Mac Roms.  Also what processor
  31. drives an Amiga?  I am not a programmer, but know from past posts that
  32. emulating a Mac on a big endian processor is a simpler job than
  33. emulating it on a little endian processor.  If I recall correctly, the
  34. Amiga is also a 6800 based processor.  If that is the case I think that
  35. all you need to do is write the glue to load the OS.
