i just installed RealPC on my dad's new G3, and it seems to run his Win
software at a reasonable pace.   and Kathy posted a message a couple weeks
ago which described a head-to-head comparison between a G3/emulator and a
Wintel machine.. in that test, they came out about equal.   the URL of the
article she cited was:

AFAIK, it's still slated for public release in Q3 '98.   if you really want
the lowdown, check in to the developer's conference they're doing next week:

    http://devworld.apple.com/wwdc98/os.html


they're scheduled to do a lot of high-level technical discussion on what
makes Rhapsody tick, and (of course) how utterly cool it is.
