Due to complaints about the rarity of the original II, it also accepts Macintosh IIx and Macintosh SE/30 ROM files. Currently Mini vMac supports Macintosh 128K, 512K, 512Ke, Plus, SE and Classic, with active development for Macintosh II, Macintosh Portable and PowerBook 100 support. Mini vMac, vMac spinoff, is still being maintained and developed by Paul C. Many of the developer e-mail addresses listed on the website are not working or current. Although the website is still in operation, most vMac development slowed to a halt in 1999, and no official releases have been made since. Some vMac ports include extra features such as CD-ROM support, basic serial port (SCC) support, Gemulator ROM board support, and various performance improvements. vMac and Mini vMac support central processing unit (CPU) emulation from Motorola 68000 to 68040, display output, sound, floppy disk insert, HFV image files, and more. vMac and Mini vMac emulate a Macintosh Plus and can run Apple Macintosh System versions 1.1 to 7.5.5. Although vMac has been abandoned, Mini vMac, an improved spinoff of vMac, is currently developed. VMac was an open source emulator for Mac OS on Windows, DOS, OS/2, NeXTSTEP, Linux- Unix, and other platforms.
