This is probably a silly question as I've never used Shapeshifter or Fusion.
I used an IMac once and hated it instantly. (A single mouse button is an
insult to my laziness! I don't want to use keyboard shortcuts! A keyboard is
for spelling. A mouse is for doing, not highlighting!)
Anyway, if you've got a PPC Amiga, is there a Mac emulator that emulates a
Power Mac?
Also, excuse my ignorance, but to run Mac emulators you need a Mac ROM image
which you can only get if you OWN a Mac. <cough> ergo, if you own one, why
emulate one?
Don't get me wrong, I'd love to run Quark Express without the hassle of
learning the oddities of Mac ownership. I even got Quark for windows to run
on my EZ/PC but after installing it I was informed that I couldn't run it
with my current keyboard!!!!
I guess Mac's just confuse the hell out of me!
Richy.
