My unhealthy fascination with Apple ][ emulation continues, this time with a Java version. MSIE's VM was the top performer last time I tested, but I imagine HotSpot will make this thing seriously cruise. You should be able to get at least 10 FPS out of it. I have made the source code available for your perusal. I use the heck out of the MemoryImageSource class. It's a good example of how to do palettized things with the AWT. Please be advised that there are folks out there stranger than me. One such bloke is Matthew T. Russotto, who ran Zork on his virtual TRS-80 Model III, which was being emulated by a virtual Atari ST, which was being emulated by the 68K emulator of his very real PowerMac. Whoaaaah. And I thought I watched too much Macgyver as a child.
