The emulation that will impress me is one that supports printing emulation (to PDF, or other printer) as well as disk-file network emulation. Ive got some programs that I'd like to run but without printing support for network connectivity they aren't usable.
- JonathonW 8y agoFile sharing is something that's actually handled fairly well by SheepShaver; it provides a "Unix" "disk" that shows up on your desktop and makes working with files from the host machine pretty easy. Network connectivity can work (occasionally with some fiddling), but it's not too useful these days. On the web browsing end of things, no one's really made browsers for classic Mac OS in years, and browsers from the classic era (like IE 5 for Mac) aren't modern enough to even connect to many sites, and, when they can connect, aren't standards-compliant enough to render them. And if you're looking to use network services built into applications, most of those were shut down years ago. (Can't say anything about printing support, though-- never tried that.)
