DOSBox isn't subject to Microsoft's whims:

http://dosbox.sourceforge.net/

Since it emulates the 286 and 386 (and it apparently does emulation even
when running on x86), the features it offers would be a superset of what the
PC Transporter can do.

Since the PC Transporter is just a PC/XT-compatible crammed onto a card that
fits in an Apple II, I'm not sure what the point would be of emulating it
specifically vs. just going with something like DOSBox.  It's
cross-platform, too, with the current version available for Windows, Mac OS
X, Linux, and OS/2, and an older version available for FreeBSD and BeOS.
