Snow emulates classic (Motorola 68000-based) Macintosh computers. It features either a graphical or a simple text-based user interface to operate and debug the emulated machine. The aim of this project is to emulate the Macintosh on a hardware-level as much as possible, as opposed to emulators that patch the ROM or intercept system calls.
