My old port used CGX and had some P96 code already written (it showed some garbage at the bottom of the screen but mostly worked), couldn't SDL be removed?

1.- you can get control of the mouse again pressing the middle mouse button 
(sometimes the scroll wheel) and CTRL. 
 
2.- CDROM works. You can enable it with something like Path="a1ide.device 
2" 
 
3.- On WindowsXP you can choose more screenmodes if you use the SDL version. 
 
4.- It is slow, but if you put a high IPS value like 2500000 you'll probably 
speed up the cpu emulation. 
 
5.- To make pc emulation faster port qemu and delete bochs ;-)

Wow, BeOS running on Amiga ^^ It would be handy to have an useable Windows 9x 
running under OS4.

Let's hope someone continue working on it, and, sad to hear about Crumbs A1....

It works. Simply put a hardfile created on other system and change the config 
file. There are linux hardfiles for bochs ready to use in the bochs web page. 
 
After trying it out IMHO this emulator is just a curiosity as it's too slow to 
use Windows. The situation won't change until the Bochs team integrates qemu cpu 
emulator. A JIT may turn it into an useful emulator. 
 
BTW I hope to have my A4000 fixed in 3 months.

why not just loan crumb some hardware so he can finish it )and his other 
projects?) , sad to see that he cannot use os4 atm for dev :I

@Spot 
You are mistaken, the 60+ people downloaded the emulator executable, so they 
only plan on *using* it. 
While "only" 13 people downloaded the source so far, who knows how 
many are going to be working on it...

wow! 60 downloads of an app that doesn't seem to be useable, i guess we'll see a 
full port really soon then as the source is available, and 60  people seem to be 
working on it :P haha
