Yes, I know people have been doing it for a while. I was thinking
that you were suggesting a built-it-yourself session where

and could easily write a software emulator but have less experience
with doing hardware design. I'd love some pointers on how to
implement a CPU in an FPGA.
I would *love* to assemble an FPGA kit that
allowed me to experiment
with various classic architectures (and maybe some modern ones!).
Sign me up if you decide to have one!
Golly, folks have been doing this for quite awhile. The XESS kits
seem to
be very popular. There was/is even a fellow who was offering a
pin-compatible Z80 replacement implemented in FPGA.
