Does it have a debugger? I use MESS since I can step through code and 
debug, which is necessary for writing programs.

I've read and written numerous 3.5" disks, transfered images to and from disk with little problems. This emulator has got tremedous promise. When last I used it, the sound was a little glitchy, but, the author was supposed to work on that. It's been two months or so since I tried it, but, other than that, it worked very well for me.
