Jace is the perfect Apple II emulator except for ONE little thing:

It is written in the abominable JAVA. Why, oh why did you write it in the bloated Java?

I know I should not gripe, and instead thank you for all your hard work, but Java is a 200+ megabyte crapfest. It is slow as hell, and inefficient beyond all reckoning. I know you'll state your reason as "portability"e
I still use Apple PC. At 40 kb of Assembler code, there are no dependencies (ie, do not need "200 mb of crap" to run it! You have to remember we Apple II fans are used to optimized, non bloated code.

But I shall shut up now and realize that you've done a great job nonetheless and hope someday it will be rewritten in C++ or the godly Assembler.
