Simulator, not emulator... Message #2 Posted by Juergen (CH) on 13 Aug 2004, 3:09 p.m., in response to message #1 by John The program only simulates the HP-85 and supports the most essential (?) BASIC commands. Anyway, if you can find out more detailed specifications, let us know. There was a guy (sorry, do not remember his name) who started to write a real HP-85 emulator. Any progress? Regards, Juergen

Re: Simulator, not emulator... Message #4 Posted by Namir on 13 Aug 2004, 9:47 p.m., in response to message #3 by Andre Koppel Andre, Thanks for the link! I downloaded the simulator and it really works great. I used to own an HP-85 and then an HP-87. So the simulator brings a lot of good memories. I like the fact that you can simulate the Matrix ROM. I did buy the german HP-85B simulator today. I am curious to see that one work too. It's nice having simulators for these machines without having the machines themselves (due to space limitations here). Namir
