Apple's done two architecture changes already. Both 68k backwards compatibility on PowerPC and Rosetta PPC backwards compatibility on Intel worked well.

- w4 10y ago> Rosetta PPC backwards compatibility on Intel worked well Rosetta worked, but I don't know if I'd say it worked well. It was brutally slow to the point of being unusable with some apps on mid/low end Macs.
- DonHopkins 10y agoDon't forget the architecture change from the 6502 to the 68000!

- DonHopkins 10y agoThere were some good third party Apple ][ emulators for the Mac!
