Heh ;). You make it sound as if qemu was a Linux emulator. The general I/O framework is heavily geared towards server and desktop use. The main use case of the Z80 that I'm aware of is the GameBoy. Not sure that one fits in there too well :). The Spectrum however does fit the desktop case, so it certainly has my blessings. Alex
