Hi All,
I was wondering about the status of Alpha emulation on Mac OS X. I recently decided to get back into VMS, and while I use to use a VAX emulator for my learning purposes, I thought I would try Alpha this time around.
I've since switched host OSs, from Linux and Windows to OS X, and an initial Google search hasn't yielded much promising. I could, of course, run VmWare for Windows or Linux and run an emulator on top of that, but it strikes me as a rather cumbersome approach.
Any info would be greatly appreciated 
Thanks much. |

No Alpha emulation for OS X. As you say, you'll need a virtual instance of Windows to support something like FreeAXP. |
