you can use the feature manager to determine the CPU type. right now,
there are no roms that support the VZ chip that have been distributed.
the color devices still use the EZ processor.

UInt32 result;
// get the processor ID
FtrGet(sysFtrCreator, sysFtrNumProcessorID, &result);
switch (result & sysFtrNumProcessorMask)
{
// 68328 processor
case sysFtrNumProcessor328:
break;
// 68ez328 processor
case sysFrrNumProcessorEZ:
break;
// something else :P
default:
break;
}

hope this helps.. and i believe it does work under the emulator.
:P from posts i have seen here.
cheers.
