This brings up another very important "marketing" issue. The emulated
product cannot afford to be seen as an "MPE retread." This is true for both
homesteaders and future MPErs. No one is quite sure when margarine stopped
being "imitation butter" and became a real "bread spread" but that was the
day its success as a product was assured. We cannot allow the emulator to be
margarine to MPE i/X's butter.
