PCTask vs PCx vs Emplant e586 what is the best PeeCee emulator

[SnkBitten]

One thing I'm curious about is x86 emulation for 68k mac under shapeshifter or fusion. It could give a few more options. From my browsing a few months back when I looked into it there was Softwindows, one other commercial product whose name eludes me, and surprisingly a 68k Mac qemu port from a few years ago.
There may be others, but that's what I found.
Haven't yet got around to trying any of them though.

This had me look up Softwindows for 68k Macs, and it works surprisingly well on my Amithlon system under Shapeshifter.  I haven't tried it on my  A4000T yet.  Version 1.03 appears to be the last 68k version before it moved to PPC and supporting higher than Win 3.1.

@snkbitten

Just did a browse now and also found softat, realpc, and softpc.
I'm not sure if they're 68k or ppc, but I suspect both depending on version numbers.

Also are you sure there's no Softwindows2 for 68k? I might be mistaken, but I seem to recall there was. It was a few months ago though so its quite possible my memory and reality are different.

There could be, but all I could find was Softwindows 1.0x for 68k and 1.02 with a serial number (but bad disk.img files).  So a combination of 1.02 for the application (and serial) and 1.03 for the disk image files.

I never got Softwindows working under Shapeshifter - Could you please upload or just gives some details of your setup and source???

Softwindows 1.02 install only the main program and register with the key.

(I don't remember which one I used, I may have tried both)

Softwindows 1.03 install only the disk image files for Windows 3.x.
