I am talking about buying the official Apple system software.  Read my
message carefully.  I said that when you buy the original system
software from Apple, THEN you have full rights to use that system
software as you wish.  Note that the emulated product is mostly original
code that you buy, legally, yourself.  Re-read my message.

I didn't say a 'clone of the system software', I said buying the REAL
system software and REAL ROMS from Apple.  In that way, everything is
legal.  Re-read my message.  In this way you secure the rights to use
the software privately in any way you choose.  You can even reverse
engineer the product for your own uses.  Note the word 'privately'.  If
you give it out, you are in violation of the contract.

Of course.  But I know good hardware when I see it - and that's why I
have an Amiga and emulating a Mac.
