yeah, i was curious about rather unusual devices such as the BI-80, a BBU / REU combo, or even a turbo chameleon. Just wanted to see how far the emulation could take it. We know that with a zoomfloppy its possible to talk to real IEC devices, so was just thinking of the cartridge port also. Additionally, was thinking of a real userport connection being routed into VICE.
