Can I emulate a pc using my Quadra 840av?
How worthwhile would this be?
I might try to run a pc emulator in order to run Gemulator??
If I get an 8MHz ST that is fine by me.

You could try macdos or softwindows and then run Gemulator Classic version 3.8 for dos on it.


I have no idea what the speed would be like or if it would work.

On my old Centris 660AV running SoftWindows 1.2 & Windows 3.1 it was quite slow.

I would assume that any emulation product would be very slow. Best to research a native emulation suite for Mac OS.

There were NuBus cards with PC processors on them that worked much better than SoftPC or SoftWindows.
