Re: Sweet16 - the best Apple IIGS emulator!
Hi Lim. Welcome back!
Sheppy did a demo of the latest version of Sweet 16 at Kfest this
year. What impressed me most was the scaling of the emulator window.
You could expand the GS screen to fit the full screen of your monitor,
fit it into a small window, or anywhere in between.
