Has anyone come up with the idea of writing a Macintosh emulator for the SUN3. It shouldn't be too difficult since the CPU is the same.
A friend of mine started on it, but found that you must run SUN OS 4.0 'cause you need to map page 0 in the memory, and that can't be done with OS 3.0.
If there does exist a program that includes software for copying the ROMs, could someone send it to me?
I would enjoy running Macintosh on the SUN's '020 and a 19-inch screen with a lot of virtual memory and a large quota on my filesystem.
The emulator should perhaps keep all the Mac files in one single SUN file (I really don't know though).

By the way, is this a stupid question?
