hey all, I know I've asked this in the past, but I'm once again looking at good SID emulators. Does anybody have any recommendations?
<tunixman>
I used to use something back in the day, but this was the 80s, I was a younger lad then with nearly no history to cloud my judgement.
<cr1901>
There were SID emulators in the 80s?
<tunixman>
no, I had actual SIDs.

<cr1901>
Really? Who would make such a thing :o?
