@neofree

I've also wondered about the possibility of a PC emulator for the A1.  I think that almost everyone would like to be able to run MS Word and so forth.  Though I game of Half-Life (and by extension Day of Defeat) would be nice  :-D .  Considering that the A1 is using mostly standard PC equipment (in terms of sound and video cards) would a relatively fast PC emulator be possible?

I'm sure there are technically minded individuals who can answer this one  ;-) .

Cheers

@Odin

I've downloaded a demo of PCx, might give it a whirl on WinUAE

Cheers

Personally, there are a few obscure MS-DOS applications (mainly econometric stuff such as Frontier 4.1, DEAP ) I would like to use.  PC-Task and PCx would be more than up to the task, I hope  :-)
