Ah, such a simple answer for such a complex question.  I would say that it 
makes sense to emulate a mac on an ST, because it does an equal or BETTER 
job of it than the mac itself about 99% of the time, for much less money.
If you want to do work with a PC, buy one and set it up next to your ST.
The biggest flaw with the PC emulators out now is that they don't really
out-perform the real PC's, and are only of use (but valid use) to:
        
          a:  people who only need PC compatability occasionally.
          b:  people who have very small desks, and no money for furniture
              (but plenty for hardware add-ons).
          c:  hacker-types that just want to do it for the fun of having 
              two or three machines in one casing.

As always, these statements are all IMHO, and I intend to get a PC emulator 
board because I fit in group c.
