Subject: bochs and bximage~ What other architecture aside from Apple/IBM clones
You mean Commodore is still alive and kicking? Wonderful! (that is who
produced Amiga) I remember the first year of Amiga wanting to get one. Too
bad Dad said no! (I was 13 at the time.... or was it 12)
What kind of processor do these machines ( Sun-SPARC, Amiga, and SGI ) run off
of?
