Because I (as other people) didn't understand that particularity. And in the Bochs files, it's written something like "Bochs is slow, have a look at Plex86 for faster process" so I thought, probably as others, that Plex86 was an emulator.
So I must tell you that I find strange that you limit yourself to a processor. I mean Bochs seems more interesting because it can emulate a processor on an unlimited number of machine (you just have to port it). Plex86 can help to run a limited number of OSes (mainly Win and Linux) on the same processor. But probably the most noticeable limit is the processor. As processors change, and Plex86 is stuck to x86 processors, does that mean you'll have to start all over again when the x86 production will be stopped ? If really RISC processors get over CISC ones as it is (was ?) said. I think I'll go back to Bochs... bye -- Philippe 'Elwood' Ferrucci Jay Miner Society - Phoenix Platform Consortium Amiga Translator Organisation http://elwoodb.free.fr
