I'm getting tired of hearing everyone talking about their various Mac
emulators without telling those of us who don't have access to one what
they can do.  I've also heard about three different people talk about
what seems like three different emulators.  Are all of the software
emulators really the same thing, or are they different programs
entirely?  What percent of Mac software do they actually run?  Could
someone post a list of software that they personally KNOW to run?  Also,
where are we supposed to get an image file of 64K Mac ROMS?  I don't
have the equipment or expertise to download them from some actual ROMS,
and I am not sure as to where I could even get those.  Do all the
software emulators require that you transfer the software via modem, as
does David Small's Magic Sac?  And the most important question . . . are
any of these emulators good enough so that I should go out and buy a
monochrome monitor?  Thanks go to the person that can answer these
questions.
