Re: emulated or virtual? Message #6 Posted by bhtooefr on 14 May 2013, 10:41 a.m., in response to message #5 by Mike (Stgt)
Emulation vs. simulation is a fuzzier line, although I've occasionally heard simulation being used to describe transistor-level emulation.
(Simulation in that sense is very rare except during development of hardware, although there is a 6502 emulator that is transistor-level: http://visual6502.org/)
As far as I know, Nonpareil definitely isn't doing that, but like I said, the emu vs. sim line is far more blurred, and sometimes simulator is used as a synonym of emulator.
