An interesting question! It's true that none of the simulators currently do microcode simulation, but I don't see why they couldn't. Certain assumptions about clock calibration may be in question, but I'm not sure. Even if they were, I think it's a surmountable problem and not fundamentally impossible given SIMH's architecture. -Seth -- Seth Morabito Poulsbo, WA, USA w...@loomcom.com _______________________________________________ Simh mailing list Simh@trailing-edge.com http://mailman.trailing-edge.com/mailman/listinfo/simh
