Emplant - Mac Pro

Advanced Macintosh emulation upgrade module

This module offers a wider range of advanced Macintosh emulation capabilities. Although much of code is based on the previous MAC emulation, the new software is completely new, smaller, and faster. Besides the standard features you have come to expect from the previous MAC emulation, these additional features make this emulation module the most advanced product of it's type. The module upgrades any of the Emplant boards.

• Completely new OS2.x+ style guide compliant user interface, using gadtools.
• Opens on a public screen. No more custom screens.
• Support for Virtual Memory.
• ASL is now used for all file requesters.
• Built-in help when using OS3.0 or later.
• Support for most 512K-1meg 680x0 colour MAC ROM's. This includes ROMS from: MAC II/x/cx/ci/si, LC, LCII, LCIII, colour classic, Quadra 700-950. All ROM's work with CPU caches on. All ROM's will support an FPU, whether designed to or not.
• MAC OS is partially re-written so it does not constantly busy loop, giving the Amiga side more CPU time and allowing lower priority tasks to run (such as screen blankers and auto disk changes).
• Support for EtherTalk and other EtherNet based applications when using a SANA-II compliant EtherNet driver.
• Built-in support for CD-ROM's not connected to EMPLANT's SCSI port.
• Faster interrupt and exception handling.
• Enhanced video driver support (larger sizes, more colours).
• Enhanced file transfer capabilities (ability to set filetype and creator, filename filtering, and more).
• Enhanced multitasking code prevents Amiga serial.device lockups.
• Enhanced sound support. You can set the emulation to use the Amiga's audio exclusively, or shared (audio channels can be stolen by the Amiga if necessary).
• New custom logic chip improves bus timing, boosting performance and reliability of EMPLANT's VIA interrupts, serial communications, and SCSI operations.
• New utilities, and much, much more!

Price : £ 29.95 UKP

This package includes the new software and a new custom logic chip that replaces an existing chip on your EMPLANT board.
