Is there any plan to port z26 to Windows. It's a great program (especially
the log feature) but as a DOS program, the performance under Windows XP is a
little disappointing.

I have to second this motion that we need a better Windows emulator.
StellaX is showing its age (no illegal opcode support, etc...) and Brad has
for all intents and purposes ceased development of the core and Jeff Miller
last updated StellaX-proper over a year ago.
I have developed Death Derby to date with almost no runtime debug
capabilities because there isn't an emulator that runs well on Windows 2000
that has full-fledged debugging. I think I'd learn 6502 asm better if I
could single-step through it. PCAtari for windows has the best debugger,
but it is totally slow and wildly unstable under Win2K. Z26 runs without
sound (on my PC at work it tries to use the motherboard speaker!!) and has
the more minimal trace functions.
I doubt I will upgrade from 2K to XP anytime soon because of Microsoft's
licensing scheme. I'm sure I'm not the only one in that boat.
We need a better/revised emulator for windows. Someone has to do it sooner
or later.
