Hmmm... the temptation would be there to run SimCoupe at
higher speeds, and yes great things could be done... but it

I do agree with that aspect of it, in that it only makes sense to emulate
features that can/do exist
something in previous posts so feel free to

I got as far as the train-station, where I was told that because I hadn't
booked my ticket 5 days previously (should've been £32), it would cost me
nearer 60 quid to get to Norwich! I really wanted to go, but not at those
ticket prices!
