I don't get the lack of love here. Every good hacker knows the answer is 
because it can. I think it adds to the charm and shows the power of the Amiga 
quite well. Also it shows off the technology of a computer on a card 
technology. 
For the architecture wars fans it also reflects that they don't need a dreaded 
"pee see". In any event I'm a fan of emulation and hardware emulation I think 
is pretty solid technology vs the software counterparts.
In a demo story an Amiga employee in town said he did a demo of his Amiga 3000 
tower on a tech TV show. While he was playing some music on the Amiga he 
started up his bridge board app and loaded Windows 3.x. Then while waiting for 
Windows to load switched windows to show a restore off an internal SCSI tape 
drive.
Pretty amazing technology. Plus you could even run a dos game then see the 
difference in the Amiga version  (that'd be a great VCF demo).
