I don't think so!  I saw the Magic Sac at COMDEX, and was told that the
current version does not emulate 128K Mac ROMs.  Specifically, I was told
that Hypercard would not run on the Atari using the Magic Sac.  This
was repeated by an Amiga/Atari dealer here in San Diego.

Also, be advised that you must "obtain" a genuine 64K Macintosh ROM to
put into the Magic Sack.  Some dealers apparently have them to sell with
the Sac.

(BTW, I am a Mac owner who is trying to decide whether to upgrade my
512K, 64K ROM Mac, buy an Amiga, buy an Atari, buy a VAX, buy a tablet
of paper and a pencil, or ?)
