188.0. "Another PC Emulator..." by JAKE::ACCIARDI () Mon Nov 24 1986 15:12

    A company called Phoenix Associates in Norwood, MA has announced
    a new PC-emulator for all 68000-based machines.
    
    It is a pure software emulation, and is supposed to run most
    copy-protected and all non-protected stuff at XT speeds... no mention 
    was made on if or how graphics are handled.
    
    On that same note, SofTeam has indicated that their PC/ET Amiga
    Emulator is still several months away.

    With the sidecar out and an IBM card for the AMIGA 2500, one would
    think that hardware is the way to go.
    
    I would like to solicit contrarians into joining a pool to study
    and then purchase the above package.  Anyone interested?

    re: .0  that sounds like the same folks who make the Phoenix Bios
    for a lot of the clones - that's great news! what is the source?
    
    (the Sidecar at the show in Marlboro had a Phoenix Bios)

    It is the very same Phoenix that makes the best BIOS.  The article
    appears on the cover of the November 17 issue of InfoWorld.
