Posts: 5558 		Does anyone know of a nice quick emulator that will emulate a good speed speccy on my ARM3 arc (RO 3.11)?? I would really like to play my dizzy roms on it rather than having to hog the RPC when my dad wants Schema running... monkey

Thanks in anticipation...

There are a few freeware ones that can be found on the Acorn Emulation Page :

However the best is the commercial one by Warm Silence Software that costs around 15 ukp. See their website for more info :

Posts: 320 		Hmmm, I'm going to have to disagree with you a bit on that David.
The current version of !Z80em runs a bit too slow on an A5000, whereas Spec128 allows the option of a frameskip to achieve full speed on an Arm3.

That said though, the compatability rate is not quite so good on Spec128.
There are reviews of both emulators on my tacky website at http://www.thedeathzone.free-online.co.uk
Cheers!
