> you know how NES emulation has NES movies, i
wonder why there isn't a spectrum equivalent... that
would be an interesting way to watch other people play
JSW.

Real Spectrum Emulator allows you to create .avi files
as you use the virtual 'Spectrum', though of course
this eats up hard disc space. James Mckay sent me a
private beta of the new X128, which has amongst it's many
great new features (such as full screen, no border mode
and a 'fast forward' key) the facility to record
movies, though I haven't yet tried that
feature.

> another thought i had is if you could emulate a
super-spectrum, with basically a lot more memory. i don't know if
this would ever be possible but it's an intriguing
thought!

It's certainly possible, it's just that there is at
present no software to run on it ;o)

Incidentally,
didn't YS3 (see the link at WOS) once mention a Spectrum
compatible operating system for the PC? Obviously a joke,
but still....
