Previous is a NeXTcube and NeXTstation emulator written to emulate the NeXTSTEP family of operating systems. Its code is partially derived from the Hatari emulator, which emulates the Atari ST line of computers, and as such shares some compatible emulated hardware. It is still in early stages of development but is already capable of booting and running NeXTSTEP.
