Computer Replicas's (Alto software)

A Xerox Alto would get my vote.
Does any software still exist if such an emulator were built?

So lets have your vote for what replica's of old computers
that need to reconstructed at a functional level -- blinking
lights, mechanical I/O but it need not be the same hardware
level.

I'm biased towards machines that no longer exist, but have
surviving software:
SDS 940
BCC 500
A Xerox Alto using modern components would be interesting
as well. It would easily fit into a medium sized FPGA now.
