Everyone has been complaining about PC-ditto speed. Perhaps, all this software
emulator (and one should realize that software emulation IS slow) needs is
the accelerator board from Megabyte :-) If this 16mhz board is as close to
completion as it seems (from rumours), pc-ditto ought to be sped up by a notch
or two (and for only approx $195 -- the cost of the board). Also, I'm sure
that the next version of pc-ditto will be a little speedier than its prede-
cessor. If used in combination, I could imagine speeds in excess of a PC!
(Yeah, imagine that -- an ST going at the speed of an IBeMediocre PC :-)
You'll never catch me buying this accelerator board to emulate a PC more
swiftly -- I'll buy it to run ST software (compilers) faster :-)
