- Executor is a 680x0 emulator plus a "clean room" rewrite of the MacOS.
- You don't need a copy of Apple's MacOS to run Executor, although
- eventually we'll make that an option so you can get really good
- compatibility.
-
- We've done the MacOS rewrite in such a way that it can be ported to
- various machines. Executor currently runs on x86 PC's and m68k-based
- NeXTstations; in the past we've had it running Mac binaries on a DEC
- Alpha. In the days when ARDI just had a source-compatibility library
- it was ported to numerous other now obscure machines.
