I found this home page while looking at qemu for windows. Looks like
he's done a lot of work on Japanese pc emulators. Perhaps this is old
news.

Very nice, I have a NEC PC-100 and a Fujitsu FMR-60. But the biggest
problem apart from the Japanese keyboard and display is to find software
for these machines. And an emulator without any software is nice, but
not very useful...

About the coolest variation on this is a NEC PC-9801 emulator running
on an iPod Touch:

I think I still have PC9801 software somewhere... probably the
original ASCII MINIX among others things.
The most interesting thing about the PC9801 was the video memory
layout and lack of a BIOS function to draw characters on a screen.
