The 16-bit IIgs emulatorsĬoming into use now need the latest processors (Pentium or PowerPC chips).Īpple II 5.25" diskettes are not compatible with that 5.25" floppy in theĪ disk-image is a track-by-track copy of a physical diskette made to a fixed Point, it takes the processing power of a 486DX2/66 or 68030 CPU to comfortablyĮmulate a 1MHz 6502 (the CPU of the 8-bit Apple ][). Is really only possible because of the expanding power of computers. Efficient emulation of the Apple on modern machines Emulators can use a large percentage of your physical computer's If the concept of emulation sounds too good to be true - that's probablyīecause it is. Software copy of the ROM (see below) the emulator can use the resources of your Software, and around this is built further emulation of storage devices (usuallyĭisk-drives) and translation so that the virtual-machine can use your physicalĬomputer's keyboard, display screen, RAM and sound features. Instruction-set of the Apple's CPU is duplicated at the core of the emulator as Microprocessor which executes machine-language programs). Early home computers contained a number ofīasic hardware components - the ROM (hard-coded software, like a computer-gameĬartridge), the RAM (writeable application memory) and the CPU (the
