I've got an 800 that I purchased in early 1980. I have many games on 5.25" disks, some of which I still enjoy playing occasionally. After all, MULE with four players is the BEST. GAME. EVER.
Apart from the Atari, my house is all Apple. I do run Windows 7 via Parallels (VM) on a Mac, and would be willing to dual-boot a Mac to Windows if necessary to get a good 800 emulation experience. I've seen the recent forum posts about emulators, but I have a question that I haven't seen addressed...
I don't have a 5.25" drive connected to any Mac. How can I load/play the games that I have on 5.25" disks? Do I need to connect an external drive, and will that work with any of the best emulators?
Thanks for any help.
