A digital logic simulator for the Macintosh received FOUR stars in a
MACWORLD review (Dec '92 issue).  It is an educational product (not hard-core
simulation).  It is called MacBreadboard, and contains simulated LEDs, 
dip switches, 7-segment displays, a buzzer, and 78 TTL two-state chips.

A demo is available for anonymous ftp from Sumex-aim.stanford.edu
in the info-mac/demo directory.  The price is an excellent value at $59.95.

At least in the author's opinion ;-)
