Assuming you ever actually get functioning code there, what on earth
do you plan to do with it? Do you actually have General licenses for
which you can't get hardware to run them on? The giant wall between
normal humans and running Open Genera is the price of Open Genera
itself, not the price of the Alphas to run it on.

1) I see this as some kind of sport - does someone ever believed in
1991, that the code, which Linus Thorvalds wrote to popup two windows
to communicate to each other ever will result in a quite successful
Unix clone?
2) As I personally own a MacIvory and have meanwhile a quite good
feeling what the capabilities of Genera are, I'm think it would not
only be fine to have an emulator to run Genera, it is really time now
to do it now!

Torvalds said, to the world: "Here! I have something that at least
marginally works!"
This situation seems utterly devoid of Actual Functioning Anything.

But without a source of inexpensive Genera code, this isn't much use.
