I tested PC-Speed at a local Atari dealer. It works! And fast! All the 
MS-DOS software I tested worked fine. Some of the speed indices 
returned unbelievable numbers. It certainly is faster than the IBM PS2
model 30 I sometimes have to use. If you don't know what PC-Speed is,
here is some info from the German magazines:

PC-Speed is an MS-DOS emulator. It comes as a little PCB with a 
V30 (that is a faster, Japanese version of the 8086), two PAL's, and 
four TTL's. It must be soldered piggy-back on the 68000.

It is faster than PC-Ditto II (speed indices don't tell you everything).
PC-Ditto II has a special chip which converts some of the Intel 
opcodes into Motorola opcodes. These are then executed by the 68000.
PC-Speed stops the 68000, takes the buss, and executes the instructions.

It emulates CGA and Hercules. (the latter with some horizontal
scrolling). The magazines tested some major MS-DOS software, it
all ran immediately. They had some problems with copy-protected games
(as expected) and non-Atari hard disk drivers (they are working on the
latter).

I think it is expensive (about $320). But I am sure that many people
have been waiting for this a very long time. In Europe, it is 
distributed by Maxon.
