If you're a PowerBook user, you won't appreciate lugging around that Mac Plus in the extra shoulder bag!Saturday, October 22 2005 @ 10:15 AM PDT
Rather have a real mac Plus - Mr Reynolds--2008
Well, I still have one, souped up to its full 4-Meg capacity of RAM, with a 20-Meg external hard drive and an external fan. It has been sitting in my garage for some time now, but it may work still. But the extended keyboard got lost in a move. Anyone have a keyboard they want to dispose of? I had a "portable" case for it, too, but in fact I never took it anywhere. Never have I felt such mixed emotions about freeware!Wednesday, November 23 2005 @ 03:58 AM PST
Rather have a real mac Plus - robrippin
You guys have got to be kidding me, and you call yourselves mac users...A simple google search for "vMac.ROM" reveals all you will ever require.
Sheesh.

Elsewhere on the site is a reply:"Mini vMac requires a ROM image file to run, and so can be legally used only by those who own a Macintosh Plus. This leads to the question, if you need to own the real machine to use it, what is the use of the emulator? First, a real Macintosh Plus won't last forever. It is common for the power supply to fail. It is still legal to use the emulation after the real computer breaks. And second, the emulation is more convenient than the real thing. It is much faster (on modern machines) and you can use a better screen, keyboard, and mouse. And it is easier to transfer files between the modern machine and the emulator."
