   A public service announcement from the hercules development team:   
      
   "Hercules is NOT a hardware emulator.  Hercules emulates three different   
   ARCHITECTURES.  Yes, those architectures have been implemented by hardware   
   from multiple hardware vendors.  So, the argument that because hardware worked   
   a certain way dictates how    
   Hercules should operate does not conform to Hercules design objective."
