3. The emulator will auto-boot into the Macintosh Plus environment.
4. Use the virtual machine just like a real vintage Mac—double-click to open folders or run apps.

To import and extract .sit (StuffIt) archive files into Mini vMac:

1. Drag the .sit file into the Mini vMac window while it's running. It will appear as ImportFL on the desktop.
2. Open Import FL from the applications folder to convert the file into the Mac file system.
3. Open ResEdit, and use File > Get File/Folder Info… to open the imported file.
4. Change the Type to SIT! and Creator to SIT! (all caps, with exclamation marks).
5. Save the changes and close ResEdit.
6. Finally, open StuffIt Expander and expand the .sit file normally.

• To add more files, drag them onto the Mini vMac window while running.
• Save your changes back out by copying files to a blank disk image and ejecting it before closing.
• Customize the experience by editing the Mini vMac.ini (if included).

This setup is especially kid-friendly, featuring intuitive, creative, and educational apps. Great for:

• Teaching basic computer literacy
• Exploring history of UI/UX
• Introducing children to creativity through drawing and early learning games
