16 < <STRONG>Frodo</STRONG> is a freeware C64 emulator for BeOS, Unix, MacOS, AmigaOS,
17 < Win32 and RiscOS systems and the world's first C64 emulator not bearing a
18 < "64" in its name. <TT>:-)</TT> (No, it has absolutely nothing to do with
19 < frodo.hiof.no, that's a pure coincidence.)<P>
20 <
21 < Frodo was developed to reproduce the graphics of games and demos better
22 < than the existing C64 emulators. Therefore Frodo has relatively high system
23 < requirements: It should only be run on systems with at least a
24 < PowerPC/Pentium/68060. But on the other hand, Frodo can display raster
25 < effects correctly that only result in a flickering mess with other
26 < emulators.<P>
27 <
28 < Frodo comes in two <A HREF="flavours.html">flavours</A>: The "normal" Frodo
29 < with a line-based emulation and the single-cycle emulation Frodo SC that is slower
30 < but far more compatible.<P>
31 <
32 < In addition to a precise 6510/VIC emulation, Frodo features a processor-level
33 < 1541 emulation that is even able to handle about 95% of all fast loaders.
34 < There is also a faster 1541 emulation for four drives in .d64/x64 disk
35 < images, .t64/LYNX archives, or directories of the host system.<P>
