E-maculation News: January 2006
Happy new year!
Happy new year everyone! The Macintosh emulation scene has been a bit quiet over the last year, or at least the emaculation forums have been, not sure about everywhere else. Hopefully 2006 will bring us the release of new and updated versions of PearPC, SheepShaver and Basilisk II. Hope you all enjoyed 2005 (I didn't). Enjoy 2006!

Mac OS on your Sony PSP?!
“We all know that PSP users who haven't upgraded their firmware beyond 1.50 are able to run third party hobby applications as opposed to just commercial ones. This community has ported a large number of emulators to the PSP able to run almost every console game ever released. Apparently, someone also ported the Basilisk II 68k emulator which allows users to run a full copy of Mac OS 8.1 on it. Video here (since that video was made a new version of the port allows for a much faster runtime).”
