- There is no other software only Mac emulator for PCs. This is a
- subject I follow very closely.
-
- At one point someone hade a card that you could plug in that took
- Apple ROMs and would allow you to run Mac software on your PCs. I
- think it was called the Hydra and was made by a company with a name
- like AndOrEx.
-
- There are other programs that will allow you to read and write Mac
- formatted media (a *much* easier task than emulating a Mac), and
- people sometimes mistake them for emulators (MacSee, Mac-In-Dos,
- Mac-ette).
