Re: II Emulator for the IIgs? (Yes, I know it sounds redundant and rediculous)

[TWS <adoyson@nccn.net>]

I've communicated with a GS programmer through email who was thinking about
creating a II emulator for the GS.  Their idea was to be able to run a IIe program
in a window on the desktop (I THINK)

The programmer has a 6502 emulator written in 65816 code, but it is extremely
slow.  No work is being done on the program.  I just thought I'd share what I
know.
