  I have a friend who is interested in buying an Amiga, but has a wife who
runs a Mac II at work and insists on using nothing but a Mac.  I mentioned 
the Amax emulator to him, and he thought he might be able to convince his
wife to let him get an Amiga and the emulator.  His big question is "How
well does it emulate?"  As I understand it, she wants to run productivity
software such as Microsoft Word, EXCEL, ect.  Can anybody tell me how well
the Amax runs Mac software?  Does it seem to have any serious bugs?

He also was looking at the Atari which also has an emulator for the Mac.  Is
the Atari one any better than the Amax (Hard to believe! 8-) ) ?
