Yeah - but this is a PIII 400. Regardless, the MacOS boots in seconds. I
love that.

Anyone else use Basilisk II or other emulators? I'm noticing nice
performance, but overall there's a couple of quirks that pop up.

I've noticed the emulator will crash when a MacOS Installer attempts to
reboot the Mac.
I'm curious if anyone else has had issues with Basilisk.
