Kicksoft. ;-)

The real point is, if a market emerges, it becomes worth while to press
a new batch of CDs. Remember when EPIC did a batch of DPaint V ? Or
Nightlong licensed Scala 400? Now think about Final Office.

Get a few hundred thousand new users, and sales will go up, even if only
one person in 500 buys anything.

If the emulation runs at 1/10 clock speed, that gives us an 85 MHz
68040, which is not interesting. If it runs at half clock speed, it is
interesting.

But I think a top speed G4 will be absurdly expensive.
