If you selected, say, a 80286 +running at 12MHz, that is what the software will see, and how fast it will be +run. + +This is the ROM Set of the emulator, or, the collection of images dumped from +the original "BIOS ROM" chips of the emulated machines and their accessory +cards. These files are needed to run. + +COPYRIGHT +--------- + +Rhe contents of the included ROM BIOS images are property +of their respective owners. Although the software could +be considered 'abandonware' given their age, these files +files are distributed in the hope they will be of use for +personal enjoyment ONLY. + + +Last Updated: 2021/03/31
