Well the reason I wont settle for an emu for developing software is primarily a reason I didnt want to mention, but as ur painting me in a shade of grey, I will mention i would like to put my energies into building an ethernet board for it. after lwip and a maybe port of browser6(under LOS browser3? )

and if you think that an ether board is farout, it isnt. There are ether boards/carts for atari 8 bit and 16bit machines, apple II's (two) c64's (two) amiga 68000^(many) ad many more..

After of course learning Clascal - Lisa's object orientated pascal language...

The reason it seems weird is i dont want to pay for a very heavy machine to come over in a shipping container, possibly being lost at sea (100,000 -300,000 containers get washed off deck every year,worldwide)

So I asked my friend in North carolina in America if he would keep it there(less postage) and set it up with a webcam for visuals, an old plotter mechanism hooked up to his unix box sitting over the KB to type with (with a type buffer!) and the mouse port hooked up to his serial port somehow.

That would allow software dev

For HW dev? well, 1 step at a time:)

Now does that seem cool, or weird? :/
