"Real Soon Nowª" is who's trademark exactly? AFAIK, Jerry Pournelle originated this in the pages of BYTE (rip) nearly two decades ago or more.  However, the project LOOKS impressive.  There's a caveat about applications that make direct access to the Mac hardware (but this has been a no-no on the Mac for a Looooong time IIRC).

I agree that emulator is not the right word.  Apps under SheepShaver run natively, much closer to the Raphsody blue box (again rip).
