List of emulators

 

Software that allows Mac applications to run in a foreign environment, typically Windows. Generally capable of running only applications from earlier Mac operating systems, examples are SoftMac2000, formerly FUSION PC, www.softhut.com), vMac www.vmac.org) and Executor www.ardi.com). A copy of the contents of the Mac's ROM chip may be required to run the emulator.
