Basilisk II sounds like a winner! I run it on my P3-600, and it does a
pretty good job with it. Too bad they don�t make it for the MacOS. It
would be really nice to play some of the older games they have on my 9500
without crashing.
As soon as I get more RAM and HD space for the Q900 (had the Sad Mac on
there today-1 bad SIMM), I'll try Debian Linux.
