Remember the good old days of appledos 3.3, msdos 1.0, and the c64?

my old friend the 6502...  old enemy the 8088  :)

well, one of my favorite 'old' O/S's was CPM, on the Z80, and it ran 
turbo pascal very nicely, thru a Z80 card in my apple ][ europlus(1979 at
it's mightyest!, and I can *still* get software!!!)

The question is, is there a CPM emulator around?  I have turbo pascal, 
and some old beauties that ran under CPM.  If IBeM can emulate an 8088,
then, even consdiering the Z80's superirority  :), is there such a beast
for the Amiga?  Preferably software!, Or should I go dinosaur hunting 
elsewhere   :-)

cheers
