I do.  I'd venture a guess that several thousand other people do too,
judging by the sales record of the CFFA and Uthernet cards.

So what about emulation?  I'm a live-and-let-live kind of guy, so if
emulation's your thing, I'm OK with that.  But an emulator is just that,
an emulator.  It's not an Apple II.  Just like flying a flight simulator
is not the same thing as flying an airplane.  It can be a useful learning
experience and fun to do in its own right, but it's not the same as
actually being in the air.

Not unless the emulator runs on an Apple II.

That would be a PC or a Macintosh video enhancement, not a IIgs video
enhancement.
