If an FPGA is fair game, then why not just use an

This is a very good point, and (personally) I don't have an answer
for it, so I think it just boils down to personal preference. I am
bored to tears with emulators...but an FPGA implementation of a classic
machine is something that I find very drool-worthy.
I think it's a matter of the feeling of "fakeness". The FPGA
implementation is REAL HARDWARE...Real logic gates implementing an
architecture, instead of emulation...which is SIMulation.
