Well, since my Mac is a Mac and not a PC, it won't run the DOS version unless I buy a Wintel emulator, which I suspect is probably not the most efficient route to run an emulator. The Mac port of SimCoupe will emulate a Sam at full speed on my 200MHz 603e machine - which, one year after I got it is now lower than low end :( The only real problem is that the port doesn't handle the keyboard well at all - in fact the only modifier key which works is SHIFT (ie. SYMBOL and CNTRL are not emulated) and none of the "extended" keys exist (ie. and in the upper three bits of the keyboard port which don't exist on the Spectrum, eg ,;:"=+-*/ etc. Unfortunately this crippling error means it's almost impossible to do anything at all...
