Mac OS emulation on PC

[Kirk]

I can't speak for Emulator's product, but Basilisk II runs
at_lightning_speed on a PIII933.
The only  consideration is it only runs 68k software and has no midi at
present. See my
other post for info. Max 3.0 runs fast on old hardware, it's only the new
Max that is more
demanding, the main difference is the inclusion of MSP in the new versions.
The old
version on an old mac runs great for midi only.
