fan"boy"?

I admit that Genesis may not have as many great games as the SNES, but Vector Man and Sonic were pretty good. Esp. Sonic.

I would use chankast, but I can't find the required file(s) anyway (please no links to them!)

If you mean that it doesn't run at the full speed of the machine that you're running it on, of course it doesn't.... it's having to emulate various pieces of hardware/software, so obviously that in itself is going to take up some of your machine's resources.

Overall though, it's a pretty solid product now. Much better than MS Virtual PC and Virtual Server, IMHO.
I kno it is good, i have it...

I can keep my Windows install running at less than 10% of my resources, and throw up VMware (latest) with the other 90% and it still takes forever just to install a simple linux distro! Half speed was being generous.

I think Sonic, Golden Axe, Altered Beast were the few games I used to play on Genesis. I agree w/ forkyfork. I prefer NES and SNES over Genesis also!
