ARDI, a formerly living emulation and reverse-engineering company:

We were the only company to create Macintosh emulation software that allows Macintosh programs to run on non-Macintoshes without using Apple's Intellectual Property. However, our technology is ridiculously out-dated and is nothing but a curiosity except for a handful of users.

As far as I know, Syn68k is still the fastest synthetic 680x0 CPU.

News from July 9th 2009

Although I stopped working on Executor in 2002, I put the Executor source on Github at the end of 2008. In June 2009, I made it build using the GNU build system. I also did a minimal port of it to Mac OS X (both PPC and Intel). To build Executor, you'll need to build Syn68k first. The source to Syn68k is on Github as well.

Stolen Bases, the company I co-founded in 2006 was purchased by E-Line Ventures. Although I now have a bit more free time than I have in the past, I'm mostly doing consulting work and have a new start-up on paper. My family (wife and three kids) continue to be a great source of fun, pride and inspiration.

There are old Executor binaries in our download section. You may use the serial number "99991004" and the authentication key "n9rk57f369byp". The key doesn't expire. There is no technical support available for Executor. The (MIT-licensed) Syn68k and Executor source code on Github no longer requires a serial number or key, but I haven't yet updated the binaries on our (super slow) ftp site.
