I can understand Apple's Terms and Conditions but emulator's of things like this (and the excellent Spectrum 3) may be a good place to make an exception. Mind you, it could be a good place for old IP to be sold again in compilations. Ahh, the days of U.S. Gold and Ultimate. It's all coming flooding back.

The best computer I had until I got my MacBook was my Commodore 64. It's too bad that they won't allow Basic V2.0, I still have a bunch of C64 Basic stuff backed up. Neato!
