I have an APPLE "Macintosh SE/30" computer with the following specs ....

CPU > Motorola 68030
CPU Speed > 33MHz
RAM > 4MBs
HDD > 80MBs
OSS > System6

Is there a version of "DOSBox" that'd work with this machine ?

Thanks In Advance!

Probably you could compile DOSBox on that, but don't expect big performance... I doubt you could execute any game at a decent speed (including 8086 CGA games).

I wouldn't want to compile DosBox on that. Probably would take a couple of days.....

WOOT WOOT ! l o l
Thanks so much for the great news, Zup !

Forgive my not knowing-ness but by "compile" do ya mean translating it to the "System 6" language ?
If that's the case then I'll deal with less-than-warpspeed "DOSBox" performance
as long as I can get ta see "Ultima UnderWorld" on the screen of a boxmac ! l o l

OK -- sounds good.
Could ya recommend a version number, please ?

Thanks In Advance!

Hey ][GS User !

Funny you should mention "SoftPC" ....
I had it -- I bought a shrinkwrapped copy of it at a fleamarket for $2 l o l
But after I read the manual I threw it away thinking it useless.
I guess I'd better find another copy ....
