I have a magic Sac, and it makes my ST run Mac software better than a real Mac in some cases (larger screen, 8 Mhz v.s 5.77(?), fast disk access). It reads any mac formatted disk with the translator, however formatting using the translator may not work on any given mac. Turbo Pascal might run, but I am not sure. I use lightspeed C with no problems. There are a lot of minor problems (no 128K rom-only software (yet), hardware accesses cause crashes), but overall, I can get away without a mac.
