Erm, no. There was an emulator included in the operating system. It happened twice, btw: m68k -> PPC and PPC -> Intel. In both cases the transition was made via an emulator.
So I'm asking why would we write an emulator for FreeMiNT if you can run one natively on your PPC/Intel hardware.And in the end you would want what, writing x86 GEM applications? I don't think you'd be greeted with much understanding from the community...

Will this not depend on the the CPU availibility and development.

OS is called Mint and EmuTOS.... Platform is called Aranym.... Aranym running on Linux, windows and OSX.... may be Android as well ??
EmuTOS also runs on Amiga and the new all-souped-up new CPU.
