    There are emulators for most old school computers and gaming consoles available for windows, i have alot of them, its pretty cool to load up old C64 games and relive my childhood memories, sometimes its hard to think how these very simple and graphically crap games kept me interested for so many hours.

    Slightly off topic but I have had a recent yearning to play Scarabeus (sp?) which was probably my favourite C64 game. I've searched but I couldn't find it.

    Have you heard of it?

    I must download an Amiga emulator & dig out my collection of games Etc.
    Which emulator have you found to be the most compatible?
    How do you use these emulators? I assume you need to load the amigaOS (V1.3?)first?

    a microbee 16, dads still got it it still works and all the games were text adventures like frankensteins monster.

    I evolved into a pair of atari 130's (an st and xe) with 5.25 disks then onto a 486 with 4mb of ram,120mb hd, 512k graphics card and an adlib soundcard.

    from there it pretty much followed the IBM trend with gaming consoles to match (starting with the atari 2600)
