What is emulation truly about?
Is it simply the act of mimicking the actions of one computer onto another computer, no matter how similar or different the two systems may be?
Might it be a tool of piracy with grey-area labels slapped onto for teenagers to have some free fun at the expense of programmers?
Could emulation be about giving back to the community which gave back to you for so many years - an act of sharing and selflessness?
Or is it an excellent way to learn how to program while at the same time helping other fellow programmers through open-source projects?
It's every one of them.
Or it's none of them.
You're all right, but you're all wrong.
It's not just emulation, either. This entire world that we live in - it's whatever you want it to be. Whatever this means to you is what the true answer is.
Make the most of the time you have on this earth. Perhaps you fancy video games as your entertainment. Still others listen to music to release their anxieties. But whatever your escape may be, try to remember one thing.
Whether you profit or not...
Have fun.
Just have fun.
Enjoy life while it lasts - because it's never forever.
I wish you all good luck.
