I received a brochure from Gadgets by Small that mentions a product
called PC-Ditto from Avante-Garde (I'm not positive of the name, I
don't have the brochure with me right now) that allows an ST to run
IBM Software.  Supposedly this product can coexist with the Spectre
128, and with the aid of a piece of public domain software, allow
selection of Mac, IBM, or Atari mode at boot-time.

Can anyone attest to the quality of the IBM emulation PC-Ditto
provides?  I'd also like to know the company's phone number and a
rough estimate of its price, and how it "plugs" into an ST.
