Neat!
I wrote an emulator for the original 68K jerq/blit two years
ago.
The original Plan 9 version is at
http://code.9front.org/hg/plan9front/file/tip/sys/src/games/blit
A Javascript version is available at
http://blit.aiju.de/
It connects to a public research unix V8 installation. Please play nice :)
