ti-emu: TI86v gets updated, and a name change
Well, I've released that version of TI86v, which I've been ranting about
ever since I released v1.1 Beta. v1.2 Beta is now out! But, there's a
name change! TI-86 Virtual is now called Virtual 86 (V86) this was done
to avoid the use of the trademarked "TI" in my emulators name. This new
version does all the cool stuff I was saying that it does, and the Z80vP
is updated a bit to have more speed. (Got rid of a lot of unnessesary
jumps, and made them into macros) This should cause some speed
increases, but you won't notice unless you're on a slow computer, or
running it in RunMode. V86 now shows the actual hertz of the processor,
and manages to keep it at approximately 4 Mhz. (give or take a couple
hertz) It also now runs under DOS, which is good news for all the
people who are refusing to get Windows 95/98. Though I don't think that
_IS_ anyone, it's still cool, because you can boot up to DOS and run it
with more speed. (Windows sucks up a lot of time from DOS boxes) Well,
I'm off for spring break. The new address (because of name change) is:

The old link redirects you to the new one. Thank you for your time.
