Hi Folks:
I'm buying a new iMac and want to get an emulator. I'm tossing up
between Open OSX and iEmulator. An experience or advice?
I'm running a pre-MS version of Virtual PC at the moment, but, it won't
run on OSX. I use it for MYOB accounting software. The Mac and PC
versions of MYOB are
I would suggest getting iEmulator. I haven't used either but it seems
from the screenshots that Open OSX is just a front for Bochs. I have
used the open source Bochs and I got it to boot up Windows 98 but very
slow, to the point that it took about ten minutes to boot. While I'm
sure that Open OSX

Hi, did you have success with using the clipboard both ways?
I can go mac - pc but have trouble the other way.
Glad

I am not very familiar with Windows. I use DOS and the emulators in much the
same way that many people use games. It is really just recreation. The Mac
OS and Windows OS are productivity systems and for me I am sure either would
be fine, but I chose the Mac a long time back and have not found

Be nice if it works, on VPC :)
Suffered a communal fault on the drive D image, lost legacy again. :(
Bummer!
Anywho vpc4 is showing its colours, Vmac-dos runs at a very acceptable
rate of knots. Startup looks better than booting

then Bochs or BlueLable is a better emulator, however the precision of the
emulation will result in MS systems running much slower than they do in the
FWB/Insignia Solutions emulators.
Does anybody have a copy of the 68K versions? How well did they work?

As with my request for PC Setup 2.x, if someone is willing to share,

away on this stuff working alone, it is easy to assume that
the problem is simply part of the software. Now that I hear DOS works as a
stand alone OS with the PC card and 2.1.7 I will go back and give the
problem some more effort.

Well on Realpc its workable under win95 but I think the classic runs
rings around it. :)
Better under vpc,

Hi,
Matthew,
the system 7.5.3 files you have are parts of a Disk Copy image. In order to
use them with the emulator you'll probably have to use a copy Disk Copy to
convert all of the pieces into one big image, and put that image back on the
PC.
Hope this works!
