Hardware
Please remember that emulation applications can put a lot of stress on your system so its advisable to run a PC with fast processors, display cards and RAM.
For those wanting to extend their emulation experience it is possible to run Apple hardware with your PC:
Cinema Display (link): Beautiful but expensive, your display card must be very fast (especially for the 30in) and have duel DVI output
Keyboard (link): Both the normal and wireless versions work well but is must be noted that some keys won't work properly. To correct, remap the keys using (link)
Mighty Mouse (link): Both the normal and wireless versions work well but some commands (like horizontal scrolling and the side buttons) do not function.
