The Real Question that I have about ARDI is why didn't Apple buy you out
and use your emulator?  Your specs indicate that the emulator works *much*
better than Apple's and is portable to several operating systems/cpus.

It even existed long enough ago that it could have easily been folded into
the first PowerMacs, and into MAE for use on UNIX boxes.

Another case of NIH?
