First release:

Elkulator – an open-source Acorn Electron emulator for Windows and Linux.

Features:
– Emulates basic 32k Electron
– Emulation of all modes + line-by-line effects
– Turbo board and Master RAM Board emulation
– Tape emulation
– Plus 3 emulation
– ROM cartridges
– Emulates sound including sample playback
– CSS Sound Expansion emulation
– Super 2xSaI, Super Eagle, Scale2x and PAL filters

Elkulator can emulate an Elektuur/Slogger turbo board. This board replaces the lower 8k of RAM in the system with the faster RAM on the board. This has the effect of speeding up most of the system, as most OS workspace is in this lower 8k, along with the stack. However, it can have some slight compatibility problems – the Electron ULA can’t display anything from this area, and some timing sensitive games (eg Firetrack) will mess up.

Elkulator can also emulate a Slogger/Jafa Master RAM board. This is a far more ambitious afair, attempting to replace all the Electron memory.
