Emax

I've been thinking of trying out Sound Designer II, primarily for 
the Emax editing functions.  However, since I don't have an old Mac 
handy, and I don't really want to add another computer to my setup, 
I've been looking into some Mac emulators.  Anyone else in the group 
running SDII via an emulator, or just using a Mac emulator for 
general use?

I have a few questions I'm hoping you can shed some light on:

I've done a bit of searching and there seem to be tons of emulators -
any recommendations on what to try (or to avoid)?

How well does SDII function in a emulated environment? 

What OS version do I need to run SDII?

Any major issues I should be aware of? 

MIDI connection or serial connection?

Are the editing cababilities of SDII worth the effort? :) 

Also, what about the ROM image i've read about (presumably the Mac 
equivalent of a BIOS file?) - where can I obtain that?

Thanks for any help you can provide
