The Amstrad PCW emulator Joyce v2.5.3 by John Elliott is available for unix, windows and MacOS. This emulates another proprietary communications interface : the PCW Linkit which links two PCW (click on the link PCW hardware information) whereas the LocoLink did link a PCW to another computer with its parallel port (PC, PcW16 or a PCW 9512 with a third-party software).
