I do agree it is useful butt compared to having it run native, you can even start arguing about the benefits, not having the JIT overhead of converting 68k operation codes to PPC operation codes, when it really unnecessary, when you may have otter native apps or 68k task inn need for all the performance they can get, and there is the stability issue when the 68k is not adapted to the native environment.

So yes it is useful, butt it really it sucks compared to having it native.
