BREAKING VINTAGE MAC NEWS: moof support was added to the FloppyEMU. This means it can read surface-level perfect copies (copy protection or not) for your vintage macs. And the collection of moofs keeps growing and growing these days. Awesome! This hits the 1984-1985 era emulator folks usually don't care about or don't have the cracking skills for! AMAZING.
