The Spectre GCR is a Mac Plus emulator.  It doesn't matter if you plug it into
an 8MHz ST, a 32MHz TT or a 16MHz Falcon 030... it's still a Mac Plus that just
runs at different speeds.  To emulate the LCII or any other color Mac, Dave
will have to do some serious code overhauling plus the user will have to pick
up a set of Mac 512K ROMs.  I imagine he will do it.  The question is when. :)
