If Apple can produce a power-pc based machine that is 100% compatible with a
classic 68000 based machine by EMULATING the 68000, then why should it be
impossible to make a 100% MSX compatible machine using a modern CPU that uses
software emulation of the Z80? As far as I know, the 68000 is more powerfull
then the Z80. Yet, the powermac executes classic 68000-based macintosh
software faster then the 68000 based mac.
