Ummmmmmm if software development under a given emulator is much more
straight forward and much easier, wouldn't that mean it's not a very good
emulator?

And as to the "much faster" part, for purist reasons, I put a config flag in
my HP 2100/21MX/7900/7948/7970 emulator that attempts to present a similar
instruction execution speed profile as the original hardware. Of course I
turn it off for development, but.... *G*
