Black Hand says he repeatedly mailed Transmeta to enquire about 68k emulation support, or the posibility to access and modifiy the morphing code. Here's what Frank Priscaro replied: Supporting the Amiga was something that we considered early on, but had to drop because all of our resources needed to be focused on the Linux and x86 markets. We have no plans at this time to support the 68K family of processors.

That lame x86 emulator is the world's first self abstracting VLIW processor, and you think that is lame? Why haven't you been able to do it?
> Baah , bring G4 to miggy now !!!
Perhaps you need to look at IBM's work on the DAISY and BOA systems? Take a look at the G4's life span...
