Darek's Secrets - Pentium 4: In Depth - NO EXECUTE! - Mac OS 8 Installation Guide | |
Privately owned Branch Always Software, also known online as Emulators.com, develops emulation software for MS-DOS and Windows platforms. Our products - Gemulator, SoftMac, and Fusion PC - deliver extremely fast emulation of classic Apple Macintosh and Atari ST computers. Our emulators are ideal for those individuals making the switch from Mac to PC and wishing to preserve an investment in Macintosh software. We've known for years that the best way to run Atari and Macintosh software is on low cost commodity PCs. Even Apple themselves now have punted on PowerPC and switched their entire product line over to Intel processor, making the Mac not only the best wasy to run current Windows and Mac OS X software, but also a great platform to run emulators on.
Why emulation? We strongly believe in the concept of having one computer that runs it all. Since being founded as "Branch Always Software" in 1986 and later being renamed to "Emulators" we have been developing software based emulation solutions with little or no loss in speed. Emulation brings the functionality of your classic Atari or classic Macintosh computer to your PC!
Save money! Emulation is a great way to cut hardware costs, especially in schools and businesses where it can ease the pain of cross-platform computing in a mixed Mac/PC environment. With emulation, older Macs can gradually be replaced over time with Windows based PCs as new PCs are purchased and the software migrated from the older Macs to the new PC. No sudden switch-over required! Our SoftMac XP product line, optimized for Windows XP and the Pentium 4 processor, makes copying files between Mac and PC disks a trivial drag-and-drop operation and allows sharing of Macintosh files across a network of PCs.
But isn't emulation slow? Emulation has traditionally had the stigma of being very slow. And that's mainly due to implementations written by people with no hardware background. Our emulators were designed by electrical engineers and from day one our emulators have been fast and efficient. Our emulators deliver close to real-time performance entirely in software, without the need for expensive co-processor boards as with some other emulators.
Ready for Windows XP and 64-bit Windows Vista: Our upcoming Gemulator 9.0 and SoftMac 9.0 releases push the envelope even further with technology which can deliver faster than real-time emulation of Motorola 680x0 series processors taking advantage of the high bus bandwidth architecture and large L2 cache size of today's Intel and AMD processors.

ATTENTION Earthlink users and other paraniod types who are still using 1990's spam filtering techniques. If we try to respond to your email and your email bounces with one of these type of responses:
To control spam, I now allow incoming messages only from senders I have approved beforehand.
If you would like to be added to my list of approved senders, please fill out the short request form (see link below). Once I approve you, I will receive your original message in my inbox. You do not need to resend your message. I apologize for this one-time inconvenience.

then we will delete your email and not attempt to make any further contact with you. If you expect a reply from emulators.com then please do us the courtesy of adding us to your approved email list before wasting our time or your time. This technique is one of the dumbest ways of controlling spam ever invented, and the fact that Earthlink still uses this scheme in the year 2008 is just shameful.
