Of what relevance is Atari's opinion?
Wouldn't it make more sense to ask the authors?

Amiga already has a darned good Macintosh emulator, which uses Mac Roms,
and it is perfectly legal.

I bring this up because it seems that the obvious answer from Atari will
be "No! It is not legal."  There is no real way to know this until some
kind of legal precedent is set because Atari, in their own best interests
will probably say whatever is in their favor.
