It's just a shame when until the MacIntel transition, even big beefy G5s

Gravity from time to time, which is actually quite playable despite the

code in Basilisk II just isn't the same.
I absolutely agree. Running an emulator doesn't make it a Mac.
Anything can run an emulator; because a Windows box or an Amiga can
run a Mac emulator doesn't mean they're Macs. By the same token, a
Macintel can emulate a VAX or a PDP or an S/370, but it is none of
those things!
