What? the C64 isn't a *real* computer? ;-)
Well, let's skip this ... :)
Seriously, though, the emulator core is
system-independent but it needs a
6502 to run on (or an '816, I guess). To get all of the proper processor
flags set quickly, it actually does run selected parts of the code natively.
For example, an LDA-absolute is turned into two steps; first is the fetch
from emulated memory, and then that result is turned into a native
LDA-immediate and executed so I get my N and V flags set for free. I'd have
to do a lot more work on another architecture.
Now, I'd love to see the source code.
The Commodore One should kick butt with this, though.
Already a IIgs would add some speed...
Gruss
