Industrial emulation is easy to do, a sandboxed and controlled VM won't die from hardware faults like a hunk of shit from 1993

Also there are NEW computers made specifically for this particular purpose, they even have ISA buses and shit

I don't understand why lemmy is living in la la land, the moment you go against the narrative you're brigaded to shit

Yes, y'all do be in fact wrong

Bonus: IBM sells emulation packages for migration to new architectures. IBM probably knows better than the lot of us.
