On a 486/33, it should run about twice as fast. On whatever comes next, it's speed will increase accordingly. Not only that, but you can actually multitask with it running. You can have Gemulator running as a full screen DOS session under Windows or OS/2 and switch between it and other DOS/Windows/OS/2 apps. Another cool thing is that Darek was hinting towards the fact that it will actually run Spectre 3.0! So we'll have Mac, ST and PC in one box. My question is whether it will support an aftermarket sound board like Soundblaster Pro to emulate the STe sound... - Al
