	"What is available in the way of emulator programs for 88K
	machines, to mimic a PC/AT, or any other computer?"

One that I have personal experience with is "Soft PC," which emulates a
basic IBM PC.  There are ports available for the Tektronix and Motorola
platforms, and possibly others.  It's made by Insignia but is sold, in
these two cases, by the platform vendors.

The Tektronix port includes emulation of the PC display and floppy
disk, so graphics programs and copy-protected software work.  I have no
experience with other ports.
