As a follow up to ContrAlto - a Xerox Alto emulator, Josh Dersch at Living Computers, Seattle has just released a new Xerox Star emulator that he called Darkstar. Darkstar faithfully emulates the Star hardware and is quite complete with this initial release. One issue that Josh anticipated was that of Viewpoint licensing .... fortunately a set of master/permanent keys showed up out of the woodwork thanks to a former PARC engineer once Darkstar was announced. You can read about Darkstar at the Living Computers Engineering Blog: https://engblg.livingcomputers.org You can get Darkstar at GitHub: https://github.com/livingcomputermuseum/Darkstar Disk images can be found at Bitsavers Have Fun! -- ..!sdf.org!martians / SDF Public Access UNIX System / http://sdf.org
