"Yes"? The question was "how?". The word "Yes" doesn't answer it!

Sure. I don't disagree but you are talking about something else. In the 
paragraph above I was asking Rob how he proposed to get a good Raspberry 
Pi emulation on a PC. That would be useful. It turns out he was really 
thinking about someone else's problem, though, and AFIACT doesn't know 
of a good Raspberry Pi emulation that will run on standard PC hardware. 
If you do, of course,.....
