Depends on your goals! :-)
- Emulating the latest stable 8.2.1 XO OS from an emulator is good to
check the good behaviour of the XS. And that is the main thing *I*
work with.
- Emulating Sugar is great to validate that Sugar does the right thing
when it finds an XS. Hamilton Chua for example needs help to test &
validate things like registration and backup work from Sugar...
- For load / stress testing of the XS, your emulators will bring down
the house before the XS gets any decent exercise.
