I used SoftWindows on an early Power Mac to run some software for
analyzing performance data fromf RC race cars back in the mid nineties.
It was okay for this relatively low demand software, which was
basically just a tool for displaying what an onboard data collector had
gathered during a race. But SoftWindows hoovered completely for any
windows software that required horsepower. It was a shell program,
which is almost always crippling.

Hell, in the mid 90s Apple had a hardware solution: a 386 card,
if I remember correctly. And someone at the same time had a software-
only solution. This is back in the 68K processor days.

Of course. I had Windows and Mac OS X running on the same hardware

Are you still bound by the non-disclosure agreement you signed back
then ? ;-)
