*M4 Board is [https://unidos.cpcscene.net/doku.php?id=en%3Aannexes the fastest measured solution for mass-storage on the CPC]. It is a very complete and convenient solution with NTP-based RTC and Wifi network and very future-proof. But that means sacrificing historical pretense as the M4 board does all the hard work regarding the filesystem and network protocols for the CPC. But support for the Internet stack could not have happened during the commercial lifetime of the CPC anyway, so does historical pretense matter for that kind of stuff?
The problem we are facing is that these multiple incompatible solutions are fragmenting the already small CPC community which mean having less compatible CPC software and bringing complexity and confusion to users and developers. Currently, the choice is as follows:
*The M4 Board is emulated by CPCemu
*The Albireo is emulated by ACE and Caprice Forever
