I would think that if the GS is to survive in spirit then an emulator would
be the way to go. A commercial or shareware emulator for the PowerMac (as an
example) would do wonders in weaning the educational market off the Apple II
and onto the Mac. This could at least make the effort more appealing from a
financial veiwpoint. However, even here the window of financial opportunity
is shrinking because the schools are already weaning off the Apple II with
or without an emulator to help smooth the path.

Is there anybody working on (or even considering) a GS emulator?
