This must be a requirement!

You're certainly right! Any solution is better than no one at all.

[..deleted..]

_I_ certainly would!! Since no emulator -today- works 100%, it's not
the same! (Even though C64S is close...)

If there's any source code available in C or in C & ASM dealing with
1541 emulation and timings, I could have a look at it. I do have some
spare time every now and then.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wouldn't it be possible to use the X1541
cable between the C64 and the PC? (Better dig up some old tech
manuals...)
