EightyOne is an emulator for the range of ZX home computers made by Sinclair Research (and their clones) in the 1980s. As well as emulating the machines themselves, various add-on interfaces are supported, including hi-res graphics, custom character sets, sound and colour cards. EightyOne was created by Michael D Wynne, with releases originally published at www.chuntey.com. This archive collates as many release versions of the emulator as possible, including the source code for them where available. Michael is no longer actively developing the emulator, but has made the code open source so that others can continue to extend it with new functionality. Versions up to 1.0a were produced by Michael, with all later versions created by others.

Denise is a cycle accurate and platform independant c64 / amiga (not yet) emulator. My motivation for this project is understanding how it works and write clean and easy readable code. New in Denise are fast loaders such as ProfDOS, PrologicDOS, DolphinDOS, ProSpeed 1571, Turbo Trans and 1571 floppy emulation. Denise supports REU, GeoRam, EasyFlash, EasyFlash³, Gmod2, Retro Replay, Action Replay, Final Cartridge, Light Guns/Pens, GunStick, Mouse 1351, Mouse Neos, Paddles. I have added runAhead, PAL and CRT emulation, drag'n'drop and command line support. Denise consists of 4 main modules. "guikit", "driver", "emulation" could be used in any other project. "program" links these modules together. GIT repo: https://bitbucket.org/piciji/denise/src/master/

This emulator is capable of providing a faithful replication of the HP48. It also has a debugger for the saturn processor.
