Yeah, the 86 has loads of free ram that the 82/85 don't, plus it's all
laid out differently.  It would be impossible to write an 86 emulator on
those calcs with a decent percentage of working stuff...  You could
probably do 82 on the 83, and maybe with a lot of work on the 85.

I could explain it to you...  please email me and not the list if you
want to know.
