The first version of the TI85 emulator was based on the MSX emulator,
which
is written in C, but not any more. The c code was far to slow for the 
emulator, which is now using rutines written in 386 assembly  to emulate
the
z80. 


If anyone wants to make a MAC version of the emulator it migth me a good
idea
to take a look at the first version of the emulator, since it would
require
only little work to port it (i think, since it is C). I think that if a
the
emulatorer is ported to the MAC it will be too slow using the c code,
but 
maybe some one was written a z80 emulator in asm for the MAC ?
