From the performance point of few I doubt it will yield performance to
run 3D games. For such "high-performance" demands some dedicated
"para-virtualized" direct 3D command passing would be required, there
already where some attempts to do so.

I'd like some decent emulated hardware nonetheless, mostly for OS
development, and probably for the nowadays common desktop 3D
effects that I hope the Intel GMA emulation could reach useful
performance.
