It emulates a little-used computerbkclog came up with a Christmas build of his PC-8801 emulator for people to try out. Say hello to QUASI88 v0.6.1 beta 6.

For those who don't know what it does, QUASI88 emulates a little-known piece of computing called the PC-8801, a computer made by NEC around 20 years back. It's old as heck to most people these days, but for some homebrewers, it's that esoteric piece of knowledge that often starts them on the path to homebrewing and programming in the first place.

Beta 6 is mostly an attempt at bugfixes, and while the commenters appreciate the new build, they noticed some slowdown with the sounds and a sort of "I saved it but it didn't actually save" problem when they tried to save their config. Still, we give bkclog snaps for trying, and we're looking forward to seeing beta 7 soon enough.
