Well, looking at the skeptical revs on MacUpdate... and the shill-like rave review on VersionTracker...

I'm betting not many people will be trying it. Caveat Emptor.

It's QEMU. You can get it for free as long as you're willing to sacrifice the catchy "i" moniker.

I don't really see the advantage of getting iEmulator over QemuX:

I notice that iEmulator doesn't have any sort of trial mode. You have to pay first, and once they have your money, then you can download it.

Sorry, I don't play that game...

Hahahahahaha! I love how the demo movies show off the speed of the emulator by running SOLITAIRE and WORDPAD.

Yeah, I know that's what I would need PC emulation for. You just can't find a mac equivalent to excellent software like that.
