And as far as how things are going, it's more probable to see in the next 10 years "virtualized" current generation arcades/next generation consoles (which would require less processing power but very specific hardware) than a 100% speed emulator for say XBOX/Chihiro. But it's not a bad thing at all, I'm satisfied someone other than CXBX/DXBX are looking at it.
