For me it is not fast enough :-) But on a 800 Mhz it simualtes a
8 MHz 8515 nearly in realtime :-)

No, not yet. But it could be ported to native windows if someone write the
posix things in win api. But I have no windows and I will not bye it.
If you spend a pc with XP I will do it for you :-)

What other platforms?

No. Multiple CPU could be simulated simultanous.

Yes. Each CPU could be driven with different clock speed. Each simulated
CPU could be connected to a seperate GDB interface socket.

Because it make no sense to put a linux/unix software into a windows project
:-)
