change would
be that discussions about the eumlators and simulators
would no longer be OT unless they drift into details of programming
the emu/simulators themselves. Additionally, more detailed discussions
Why the last exclusion? I've never heard of a discussion on how to
diagnose hardware faults using modern test equipment being branded as
off-topic. Nor using modern parts to repair old machines. Nor using
modern machines as an aid to restoring/preserving old hardware. Why
should writing emulators be any different.
Even more to the point, chances are extremely good that the emulator will be written in a
language that is _on_ topic (e.g. c, c++, x86 assembler, 68K assembler, etc). I think
however that we can all agree that any discussions about _anything_ written in c# is OT
;)
